Abstract

The present study focuses on investigating and understanding how professional exhaustion manifests itself in the organization presented in the Ruptura series, a cinematographic work chosen as the research locus, which is the main objective of the study. Three specific objectives were established that guided the survey of information, namely: a) identify the factors that challenge the mental health of Lumon employees; b) associate such factors with possible symptoms of burnout manifested in Lumon employees; c) demonstrate through the scenes the occurrence of burnout syndrome in Lumon company, considering personal and professional life. In order to provide theoretical baggage for the development of the study, a research with a qualitative approach was carried out, allied to it, the observational study was used, with indirect and non-participant observation modality, basing the analysis of the results through film analysis. With regard to the research strategy used for the study, an observation was made of the experiences of Lumon company employees. The series chosen for this filmic analysis is of a fictional context, which addresses the daily life of five employees who work at Lumon Industries, a biotechnology company that provides an irreversible brain procedure to separate personal and professional lives. The episodes of the series tend to generate important reflections about the world of work and its borders, considering personal and professional life. In addition, the series has relevant repercussions by addressing the separation between these two spheres of life, bringing contributions to the process of building perceptions about mental health and the burnout syndrome. This research was carried out in order to identify how manifestations of burnout can arise in the work environment, and how important it is for company management to implement preventive measures in the organization, stimulating well-being and quality of life at work. It is possible to understand through this work that film analysis can portray the practice of a given theory and even teach about behavioral, social and emotional skills. It is hoped that this research can bring contributions to the replication of observational studies based on film analysis in the teaching-learning process and research in the field of Administration.
