It is only in the 21 st century that emerges the interest in studying brotherhood in the field of Psychology. The goal of the present work is to develop a theoretical study, from a psychoanalytic perspective, analyzing the importance of fraternal relationships in the structuring of subjects' psyche and the relevance of siblings' presence in sharing common stories throughout life. We adopt concepts from classical authors, such as Freud and Lacan, as well as other contemporary authors such as Kaës, Kancyper e Kehl. In order to complement the discussion, we analyze the siblings' relationship portrayed in the movie "The Prince of Tides", in which a man is requested to participate in the treatment of her depressive twin sister, rescuing her memory and life history

Palabras clave : Brotherhood; Fraternal role; Siblings; Shared memory.
