Abstract

By exposing humanity and promoting critical thinking, cinema plays your part by supplying experiences that not everyone can see. In this way, constitutes a valuable source of resource for medical education. Films expand the possibilities of promoting a more comprehensive and integrated training, involving skills and competencies that go beyond biomedical knowledge, which is essential in the context of approach to elderly patient. This article describes some didactic films that shows elderly patients with neurological diseases like Alzheimer’s, stroke and vascular dementia, Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
