The Dardennean universe is made up of characters facing moral dilemmas, in a scenario marked by the dehumanization of people in the world today. This article aims to reflect on the ethics and staging in the cinema of Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne, investigating how the films reverberate the ethical posture of the filmmakers in question. Through an analysis of film fragments made by the duo from The Promise (1996) to Young Ahmed (2019), we seek to examine the works from their aesthetic dimension and then to address the ethical premises posed by the filmmakers. The aim is to demonstrate how the staging is guided by the Dardenne brothers' worldview.
