The course is divided into two parts:
A. The first part of the course will offer an orientation in the contemporary discussions in neuroethics, with a particular reference to the free will and the moral responsibility issues. The question of how to communicate these discussions to the general public will be analyzed.
B. The secund part will deal with some of the fundamental questions of moral philosophy by referring to movies that present those questions in a particularly stimulating and interesting way.
