This article reports on the “Witches on the Divan”, project that consists in the production of a film at the Instituto Estadual de Educação (IEE), a school in the Santa Catarina state educational system. It introduces cinematographic language to elementary education, contributing to the teaching and learning of arts. The purpose of the project was to develop an experience within various artistic languages, such as theater, visual arts, music, dance and others, and to sharpen the reflection about existential questions of life and give potential to creative processes. Various kinds of knowledge were used to make the film, as well as new technologies, followed by observation and analysis of how students used this proposal for pedagogical practice. The motivating element of the research was the literature and production of amateur children’s cinema, which proved to be a form of communication capable of establishing interdisciplinarity among various fields of knowledge in a creative and harmonious manner.
