Abstract: This experience report emerges as a continuum of reflections on teacher constitution and training of a teacher beginning in the area of ??Science in Elementary Education. The purpose of the report is to analyze and reflect about the documentary “Way beyond the weight” and the experience of its use in science classes. In this activity, started from the practical problem: what are the 5th year students' understandings about the importance of healthy eating? What about childhood obesity? What do students think about the documentary? Based on these questions, the activity sought to approximate the contents studied with the students' daily lives, considering the reality of the country, enabling access to scientific knowledge in an educational, critical and reflective way. The 5th grade students watched the documentary that has childhood obesity as its main theme. The activity was systematized through a questionnaire that included five open questions that sought to gather students' opinions and reflections on the presented topic . The students described the theme presented; portrayed the most striking character; detailed the fragments that drew the most attention; gave their opinion about the part they liked the most; and reflected about their own food. It was possible to see reflection and awareness on the topic of food and obesity when there was a more comprehensive approach to knowledge, by going beyond the disciplinary view in Natural Sciences, when critical issues were addressed linking themes of healthy eating and obesity to other areas, as Psychology, social, cultural and health scopes.
