Relating gender, childhood and cinema in this article is presented as a possibility of deconstruction, possible displacements, reflexive movements and the challenge of the creation/invention of "another place" where to research and understand children. Based in the movies Wadja's dream (2012) and When Buddha collapsed in shame (2007), we seek the dialogue among sociology of childhood, studies of gender and feminist studies to refine our lenses, questioning our adult and androcentric look. In this way, we bring in this article fragments of the cinematic childhoods of Wadja and Baktay, the adventures and challenges faced by these kids to achieve their dreams and wishes, permeated with meanings of gender and revealing many questions about the childhoods, the places of childhoods, girls and boys, children's transgressions and resistances. In the prospect of provoking reflections about methods of research and creation with children, the cinematic experience is proposed as possibility of aesthetic education, in the search for refine our lenses, adjust our looks from adults and our listening with childhoods and their multiple relationships. The search for building other looks to childhood brings us closer of cinematic language and allows different possibilities to glimpse its multiple dimensions spread in the relationships between children. The cinema as experience, art of memory in the present, and as historical emergency, presents itself as an important theoretical and methodological tool to build paths for an emancipatory education.
