Objectives: To analyze the perceptions of undergraduate Nursing students about the use of the image of nurses in the film Pearl Harbor, and to
highlight the pedagogical contributions contained therein to discuss the professional identity of Nursing. Methods: a qualitative, descriptive and
exploratory study, developed through film analysis and semi structured interviews with undergraduate students. The data collected were treated
by Laurence Bardin's content analysis and discussed in the light of Pierre Bourdieu's concepts of the Social World Theory. Results: The study pointed
to four categories, which covered several aspects inherent to the practice and identity of the Nursing profession, which were symbolically portrayed
in the film in question. Conclusion: There is a need to broaden the academic debate about the effects generated by contemporary stigmas and
stereotypes, through the cinematographic placement of the image of nursing professionals. In addition, Cinema was perceived as a strategic cultural
and pedagogical instrument of distinction definition and valuation of the profession in the social field.
