Abstract
The research investigated the impact of end-of-life film narratives on the emotions, moral evaluative judgments, and choices of course of action among healthcare personnel working with palliative care patients. These interviewees selected a film on the topics described; their emotions, evaluative judgments, projective aspects, and proposed courses of action regarding each topic were subsequently recorded. The results showed changes in moral stance between the initial considerations and those after the film: deonto-axiological and onto-deontological value conflicts. From emotions, evaluative judgments are generated that build moral life through the construction of values. This provides an outline for the ethics of compassion and its focus on the relational, above the procedural or normative; the joy of alleviating and giving priority and importance to what is valuable to the sufferer.
