This article is an applied psychoanalysis essay about the movie "Shame". The interpretation focus the relationship between the two main characters, specially the protagonist, Brandon. The film analysis presents the depressive anguish and the impossibility of working through mourning the loss of object as central elements of the narcissist subject. It aims to discuss broader issues regarding the suffering in contemporary subjectivity, in which the relationship with the ideals are characterized more by the mediation of the narcissistic ideal of ego, whose emotional content tends to shame, than the oedipal superego, whose emotional content tends to guilt. Because of this, it shows that the film's title is quite appropriate to the psycho-dynamic issues that arise in its plot and also illustrative of depressive anxiety and existential emptiness that underlie the malaise in the culture of narcissism nowadays.
