Nowadays, when talking about subjects dealing with the terminality of life, many taboos still appear, especially when it comes to suicide. When talking about assisted suicide and euthanasia, there are many doubts regarding the ethical and clinical limits that involve the decision to end life, in addition to these we also have the psychological side, which involves the person himself and all his subjectivity. The main objective of this monograph is to promote a discussion on assisted suicide and euthanasia through the analysis of the film “As I was before you”, and to use the principles of bioethics as a theoretical basis. In addition to this, identify and problematize what made several countries adhere to the legalization of assisted suicide and euthanasia and ponder the influence of technological advances in maintaining quality of life. The methodology used was bibliographic research, and the work is presented in monograph format. In the rationale, the main definitions about assisted suicide and euthanasia, the main concepts and principles of bioethics are presented, as well as the analysis of the film and discussion of the theory with the dramatization and bibliographic survey on the legalization of these practices in other countries. And in the final remarks, a reflection was made on the whole theme, bringing the discussion between ethical principles, Brazilian justice and religion, in addition to emphasizing the importance of psychology in these situations. Showing that the discussion is a little far from true consensus and becoming more relevant.
