Educational cinema was an ephemeral experience in the history of Brazilian cinematography, but it was fundamental to understand, if not the beginnings of the policies for the sector in the country, at least, a fundamental chapter in the filmmaking practices of the directors. From the frontier between fiction and documentary, and between the politics of public sponsorship and authorial creation, the present essay intends to explore this already well worked for theme in historiography that is educational cinema. Based on a bibliographical review, documentary and film research, and supported by an interdisciplinary bibliography based primarily on Cultural History and Sociology of Culture, the main scope of the article is to relate the productions directed by Humberto Mauro at the INCE to the discussion of cinema control policies in the 1930s. It seemed to us fundamental to this exercise of interpretation to also consider the different itineraries of cinema in the public debate of the 1920s and 1930s, since it is hypothesized here that Humberto Mauro was a director capable of blurring the boundaries between the fictional and the documentary, between the commercial and the educational, what makes him a singular personality in this history.

Palavras-chave : Educational cinema; Documentary; Humberto Mauro.
