| Summary: | This paper looks for to weave some considerations on the narrative of the short
movie Le Ballon Rouge (The Red Balloon France, 1956), of Albert Lamorisse, that, in just thirty minutes and with more than fifty years of existence, he knew how to maintain the poetic
enchantment of the imaginary, with a symbolic language. The poetry that Lamorisse translates in
to its images it checks a light and at the same time dense visual impression, when figurative use of
words evoking the infantile stories, mixers with the surreal, because the route becomes a poem,
translated with the utilization of the iconography. The symbolism of the modernist period is
evidenced in the silent scenes of spoken language, but intense in the visual language, in that the
music plays a prominence part. The words not verbalized it is reverted by images, turning visible
the invisible. In that proposal of narrative technique, Lamorisse evokes several component
elements of the imaginary, as the dream, the art, the myths, the fantastic or the fantasy.
