This article emphasizes O Menino e o Mundo [Boy and the World] (2013) - an animated movie directed by Alê Abreu, and which performs unusual treatments for the verbal and the visual: the animated movie deals with childhood and, therefore, the verbal language (spoken and written) is presented in a distorted way. What meanings about childhood can be produced from the filmic visualities of O Menino e o Mundo [Boy and the World] (2013)? Therefore, it proposes, as an objective, to investigate as aesthetic characteristics of the animated movie in question, to relate to the children's drawing and meanings about childhood. For that, O Menino e o Mundo [Boy and the World] (2013) was analyzed, having the Studies of Visual Culture as a theoretical reference (CUNHA, 1999; 2017; SARDELICH, 2006; HERNÁNDEZ, 2007; BALISCEI, 2020). The scenes were approached by researches that give meaning to children's drawing, underlining the protagonism given to the child's perspective.
