AQUINO, Thaís Lobosque  and  OLIVEIRA, Keyla Andrea Santiago. Epistemological totalitarianism vs sensitive knowledge at school from the film Druk. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2022, vol.28, e41203.  Epub Mar 17, 2022. ISSN 1981-0431.  https://doi.org/10.26512/lc28202241203.

This essay aims to develop an aesthetical-critical discussion about the epistemological totalitarianism of instrumental reason present in a fictional school represented in the film Druk - Another Round (Vinterberg, 2020). Emphasizing the lack of sensitive knowledge, we dedicated ourselves to scrutinize the cinematographic work soundly and imagetically, using the methodology of film analysis and having as theoretical framework authors of Critical Theory. We conclude that despite the inaugural circumstances in the Danish school leading us to the construction of apparently innovative knowledge, at its core they preserved opacity and submission to traditional and totalitarian epistemologies.

Keywords : Epistemology; Critical Theory; School; Cinema.
