Abstract In this work we make a critical reflection on the processes of knowledge production and the epistemological status of modern science and scientific practice, taking Vilém Flusser's perspective as a starting point. We question their regimes of truth based on the parallel between belief in cinematographic image and technical images and belief in the apparent objectivity of scientific knowledge. We found clues for a critique of the paradigms of modern science in approaches that favor other forms of rationality and relations with the world. Artistic and poetic creation becomes one of these paths through aesthetic-expressive rationality, as proposed by Santos (2002), as well as in the hypothesis of Philosophical Fictions, Flusser's epistemological proposal of knowledge that dissolves the barriers between art and science. These paths can give us the chance to establish an aesthetic dimension for science that overcomes its apparent disenchantment and insufficiency to solve the world's problems. From the observation of films called false documentaries (mockumentaries), we reflect on the power that fiction has to see the reality that surpasses the truth and on the power of thought that surpasses and modifies the limits of the truth of its own time, acting itself as critical questioning of thought orders in vogue.
