This article presents a reflection on the existing relationship between cinema as a technological instrument in the service of education and the creation of knowledge in teaching family violence counseling. It researches the possibility of including films as a technological resource in education under two premises. On the one hand, a theoretical proposal is presented, including a discussion of the intersection among science, technology and cinema in education. On the other, an empirical case is deployed, including the utilization of cinema-discussion to generate significant knowledge in the formation of counselors in the family violence field. The paper proposes to build an outline to analyze movies as teaching resource. Furthermore, it is highlighted that the utilization of movies in the classroom could help teachers to diseminate the curricular contents in transversal ways and to help develop competencies that go beyond the acquisition of factual information in the field of family violence counseling. The paper concludes stating that movies and their aftermath discussion could help in the creation of knowledge in teaching family violence counseling.
