This paper is the result of an extension of the research “Addressing the epidemiology of suicide risk at AP1&3 by means of a psychiatric emergency service” developed at ICICT/Fiocruz. It is an action research with exhibition of videos on health in the waiting room of one of the psychiatric emergency poles in Rio de Janeiro. The videos gave visibility to issues that are relevant to the construction of shared knowledge, i.e., to the combination of technical information with the social daily experience. It could be seen that this space allowed for discussions about other ways to produce and organize information on health, not only by the research team but also by entire organization. It was noted, however, that there is little investment in the production of good quality videos on health as well as the use of technological and audiovisual resources for actions on mental health. The use of audiovisuals as a tool to promote the production of new kinds of knowledge capable of democratizing information on health care deserves further investigation.
