The analysis assumed three steps: observation of motion pictures; data entry observed in spreadsheets; simple frequency ratio concerning VAW scenarios with theoretical aspects pointed out by the literature (quantitative and qualitative approach). The aggressor were strangers (n = 11, 39%), husbands (n = 9, 33%), boyfriends (n = 4, 14%) and others (n = 4, 14%). There were performances of the following types of violence: psychological (n = 19, 27%), physical (n = 18, 25%), sexual (n = 16, 22%), moral (n = 12, 16%) and patrimonial (n = 7, 10%). The fi lmic representations showed general signs of psychological traumatization in characters (n = 17, 37%). The studied fi lms are illustrative of the reality of women in situations of violence; as such can be converted to amplifying teaching tool for discussion and refl ection on gender issues and on health promotion in the context of VAW.Keywords: Clinical psychology, gender violence, fi lms, intrafamily violence.
