http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1807-1384.2014v11n2p118The article discusses the Popcorn Project, device Reference Center for Women Carminha Rosa (CRMM -CR), at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ). This activity consists in showing films used as triggers thematic discussions and, on the issue under review, we critically discuss the "Five times favela: now for ourselves." For women present in the discussion group, all mothers, the act of beating appears as legitimate and necessary for the care and education of children, especially when aimed at the protection of urban violence. Without ignoring the moral question posed here, the article proposes a reflection on the combination between domestic violence, urban violence and social gender roles, drawing on psychological, anthropological and sociological references. The article indicates that the modern sense of the unification of violence refusal forms of culturally built mothering, denying them cultural legitimacy; the analysis also contrasts cultural collectivization processes and the desired group in the device itself.
