Cinema e educação: o velho, o novo e outros territórios na formação docente

Abstract

The work shares reflections on cinema experiences by teachers in training with the public of a long-term institution for the elderly in São João del-Rei/MG. We developed three analyzes: the rhythmic-productive contrast of the teacher-child-old relationship; the encounter with old age as an experience of strangeness and acceptance; and the place of the imagination in different phases of life. We observe that the formation of teachers in asylum space, intensified by cinema as an aesthetic experience, displaces teaching, cinema and the experience of the “old” in the midst of contemporary discourses of pedagogical innovation.
