  We analyze the BOOMERanG 2003 (B03) 145 GHz temperature map to constrain the
amplitude of a non Gaussian, primordial contribution to CMB fluctuations. We
perform a pixel space analysis restricted to a portion of the map chosen in
view of high sensitivity, very low foreground contamination and tight control
of systematic effects. We set up an estimator based on the three Minkowski
functionals which relies on high quality simulated data, including non Gaussian
CMB maps. We find good agreement with the Gaussian hypothesis and derive the
first limits based on BOOMERanG data for the non linear coupling parameter f_NL
as -300<f_NL<650 at 68% CL and -800<f_NL<1050 at 95% CL.
