I here explore the educational potential of cinema and TV-series through the eyes of the French philosopher Alain Badiou. To illustrate, I read the Norwegian web-based TV-series Skam (shame), which reached out to millions of Nordic teens by a broad distribution, easy access and speaking a language young people could relate to. The series portrays the many faces and ambiguities of shame and shaming embedded in Nordic youth culture. In bringing the question of the pedagogy of cinema and TV-series to the forefront, I here read Skam on three analytical levels. First, to explore the TV-series capability to captivate the viewers through a doubling of the real. Second, to examine Badiou’s idea of cinema as an ontological art, revolving around the question of the relationship between being and appearing. Third, I read Skam analytically, to consider Badiou’s claim that cinema is a democratic emblem. In sum, what may be the series’ potential for shaping the viewers’ ethical–political awareness?

我在这里通过法国哲学家阿兰·巴迪欧 (Alain Badiou) 的眼睛探索电影和电视剧的教育潜力。为了说明这一点，我阅读了挪威网络电视连续剧《Skam（耻辱）》，该剧通过广泛传播、易于访问和讲一种年轻人可能与之相关的语言接触到了数百万北欧青少年。该系列描绘了嵌入在北欧青年文化中的羞耻和羞辱的许多面孔和模糊之处。为了将电影和电视剧的教学法问题带到最前沿，我在这里阅读了Skam在三个分析层面。首先，探索电视连续剧的能力，通过真实的加倍来吸引观众。其次，围绕存在与显现之间的关系问题，考察巴迪欧将电影视为一种本体论艺术的观点。第三，我分析性地阅读了斯卡姆，以考虑巴迪欧关于电影是民主象征的主张。总而言之，该系列在塑造观众的道德政治意识方面的潜力是什么？
