Abstract
This article discusses reflective and practical possibilities for understanding care in health practices, drawing on the analysis of narratives inspired by practical experiences and a film guided by Ricoeur’s theory of triple mimesis, which mediates time and narrative. The stories allowed us to problematize the limits of interventions exclusively geared towards achieving technical ends, evidencing multiple possibilities of conceiving the notion of practical success. By opening up significant elements of the protagonists’ lives, the narratives, as a reconfiguration of experiences, allowed us to cogitate on gaps and project other futures, including those for care.
