LORDELLO, Silvia Renata; SOUZA, Lara  and  COELHO, Letícia de Amorim Mota. Adolescents and social networks: gender violence, sexting and cyberbullying in the movie Ferrugem. Nova perspect. sist. [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.65, pp. 68-81. ISSN 0104-7841.  http://dx.doi.org/10.38034/nps.v28i65.538.

In this article, we sought to present systemic reflections on the concepts of gender violence, sexting and cyberbullying portrayed in Brazilian movie ‘’Ferrugem’’, released in 2018. The film addresses a theme with strong presence in youth reality, highlighting the risks in use of social networks and the impacts of unauthorized exposure of intimate images. Five thematic sections were elaborated, based on the narrative presented, to explain concepts and to analyze the phenomena in a dialogical way: (a) the subjectivation of adolescents in a digital society; (b) the reflexes of sexism in the relations between young adults; (c) the development of identity processes articulated to family dynamic; (d) the co-responsibility of the adolescent sexual offender; e) repercussions and implications for interventions in different areas. The movie exposes complex demands and calls us to act to intervene in these contexts, revealing and making visible the practices of sexting and cyberbullying.

Keywords : Sexting; Cyberbullying; Adolescence; Therapeutic Resources; Interventions.
