SUMMARY:

This research aims to understand how the image of being a teacher is constructed by
cinema, through the characters of teachers. The analyzes were supported by different
authors - Freire (1980, 1985, 1986, 1993, 1996), Larrosa (2002, 2015, 2018), Kohan
(2019), Rancière (2005) - who deal with the teaching profession in their works. Pasolini
(1990) helped us to think about the pedagogical language of things, including cinema
and its effects on the consumer society. The research, with a qualitative approach
(MINAYO, 2012), was built on the methodological perspective of cartography, having
Passos, Kastrup and Escóssia (2009) and Deleuze and Guattari (2008) as the bases. The
bibliographic review helped us to broaden the look on this theme and what has been
studied in Brazil. From the survey of films, we verified which cinematographic works
approach the teaching profession and present different forms of construction of the
image of being a teacher. For a more detailed analysis, the documentary Ser e ter
(2007), by director Nicolas Philibert, was chosen to understand how the image of the
Early Childhood Education teacher is constructed in the cinema, based on the
observation that this segment is what has minor film production. In the relationship
between this teacher and his students, attentive listening, dialogue, affectivity and love
appear at different times. From the study of the films, we understand that the
constructed images of being a teacher refer to: those who struggle in favor of a
liberating, emancipating, transforming education; to the ignorant master, whose teacher
is the one who assumes the role of provocateur and mediator; to the hero teacher, who
demonstrates a stereotyped view, emphasizing effort, sacrifices and full-time dedication
to the profession and, finally, to the unmotivated teacher, who faces the challenges
caused by the meritocratic and consumerist view we have in the world in which we live.
The different images of being a teacher, constructed by cinema, reveal that the most

recurrent and, therefore, most consumed images are those of the hero teacher and the
unmotivated teacher. This focus can create a stereotyped conception of the social role of
male and female teachers who are often required to be able to “save” an educational
system that does not work in the manner in which it is set and/or suffers from
devaluation and the precariousness of working conditions, without effective public
policies for Education.
