The present work seeks to present the results of the research about fiction films and historical concepts in the teaching of History within the Postgraduate Program strictu sensu Professional Master in History Teaching at the Federal University of Pará, Campus Ananindeua. With the general objective of debating historical concepts in elementary school classrooms and the difficulties of their apprehension, in view of their complex and abstract character, we explored new ways for students to recognize and dialogue with such concepts by working with episodes in the series of Star Wars films as the main didactic resource and relating them to the crisis in democracy and the rise of totalitarian regimes between the two world wars, with students from a class of ninth
year of the Nilza Nascimento State Elementary School, in the city of Castanhal, in the state of Pará and that led to the production of mental maps based on their impressions and understanding of the concepts and the historical narrative studied, in the second semester of 2019. In order to carry out the pedagogical intervention work, cine classes, conversation circles and workshops of production of mind maps were developed,
seeking to make classes more playful and encourage student participation in the construction of knowledge.
