This dissertation has as research theme the Alterity in Contemporary Families, in this way, aims to reflect on the place of the Other in the family from the contributions of the thought of Emmanuel Lévinas in his ethics of radical alterity. It present as a starting problem the changes experienced in contemporary societies, especially in relation to relationships of trust. Contemporary societies, with their specific characteristics in relation to modern ones, present changes in the experiences of time and space. Such modifications have made possible the knowledge and techniques that seem to affect a life management perspective, having an impact on the form of contemporary interaction. The relevance of this work comes from the centered and detached position that the family occupies in the contemporary scenario. The expert and abstract systems - systems of technical excellence and professional competence that order the social and material environment in which we live -, in the contemporaneity, seem to invest in the family group and to enter it, making important a discussion about its scope and limits. In relation to the members of the family and, consequently, of how this group, in particular, stands in the face of otherness. The methodology is based on the contributions of film analysis, visual anthropology and analysis of the image, by viewing films taken as cultural documents, so the elements necessary for this investigation can be played. The films Abril Despedaçado and Boyhood are analyzed and chosen for their temporalities and distinct spatiality in order to contemplate the diversity of family configurations, as well as to draw a parallel between aspects of permanence and transition in the familiar sets. The movies works allow the visualization about the moments from reproduction of the social schemas when it are reiterated by the family, as well as the moments of impugnation of these same schemas presenting an ethical sense as such in the understanding of our theoretical horizon based on the ethics of radical alterity. Abril Despedaçado presents a scenario of transition from a traditional family model situated in a rural context, while Boyhood takes place in an eminently urban environment passing through several models of family association.
