Filmes e negritude em sala de aula: Essa relação é possível?

This paper presents an experience with teachers who participated in an extension course conducted during 2008 entitled: "The movies in teaching history and culture african-Brazilian and African basic education." Guidelines and National Education establish compliance with the Law 10.639/2003 education for ethnic-racial. To discuss and contribute to the education of blackness in Brazil, this paper discusses the potential of film narratives in the classroom for the teaching of history and Afro-Brazilian and African culture. The results indicate the existence of potential pedagogical filmography, even teachers do not know how to exploit their film narratives that help students visualize the "other." We conclude that the use of films as a source of study or as a pedagogical tool requires a critical pedagogical action decoding, interpretation and deconstruction of film narratives to understand the record of human actions depicted on the screen
