Abstract: School is more and more engaged in giving an importance to all that concerns the emotional aspects of an educational process with the goal to promote a total emotional development of the students. The aim of this paper is to explore the use of audio-visual technologies and products as instruments to help the socio-emotional education and to develop the digital competence in the educational field. The audio-visual communication has specific peculiarities that make it fit to reproduce the real world, so favouring the involvement of the public. In particular, the authors discuss the educational use of the movies in order to participate and commit in the digital culture, improving emotional awareness, controlling emotions, helping students to utilize their emotions in a positive way, developing their empathetic capacities, and controlling in a more functional way their own interpersonal relationships. The acquisition of all these capacities in the developmental years should have direct repercussions on the educational processes of the students.
