Film Abstract Instructions and Sample
Questions and points to consider:
Instructions: View 5 films – one abstract for each film; upload one document to “assignments” in Canvas by the due date noted in syllabus.
Does an ethical problem(s) exist? How do you know?
What responsibility does the individual(s) have to respond to this ethical problem?
State the ethical problem clearly; how do we separate the ethical problem from other non-ethical components? They are often entangled in real-life in various ways, from company policies to types of relationships in which you are involved, your role in an organization, etc.
How do we begin to resolve the ethical issues? You need to be able to justify your choices; explain why they work or do not work. (can include this for each film – or a version of this…)
What are the choices you can make – are you free to choose to act or not to act? To what/to whom are your responsibilities?
What are the primary duties and/or obligations?
Consider: Are you willing to pursue the “good” in order to conform to the good? (…such as the values of an organization such as your employer) For example: courage is the willingness to make your behavior conform to the good, even with it is dangerous to do so.
“Good” needs to be defined.
*What is/are the lesson(s) to be learned from this film?
