The use of film in teaching social work ethics presents a creative contemporary tool for social work educators. This paper reviews some of the evidence of the benefits of film as an approach to helping students explore ethics in social work practice. Insights from a pilot project, known as the Film Club, which looked at the use of film to teach ethics to social work students on an MSc Social Work programme, are presented. The paper comments on how the use of film can be both beneficial and challenging in teaching ethics to social work students
