Resumen
This text deals with the problem of social discrimination as is shown in some classic movies. Using the textual analysis instrumental it studies, after establishing the main concepts that allows to think the problem in a structural way, two relevant cases of segregation and exclusion through the close analysis of some very well known films, going from the presentation of deformity in works as Freaks (Browning, 1939) or The Elephant Man (Lynch, 1980) until the close lecture of Shoah (Lanzmann, 1985), film in which the spectator is confronted with the image of something that was thought as invisible. As the authors shown, the cinema is able to offer a different and specific knowledge about out world.
