The Urban Landscape in the Narratives of Documentary Films About Lublin

Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt at a critical original analysis of documentary films in relation to the documentary andnarrative function of the landscape. The author treats the film space as a ‘world picture’ as understood by MartinHeidegger, and in this context, she presents her own model of seeing and understanding the world present inher own documentary work. The landscape here is saturated with meanings, especially emptiness, lack andpost-memory, which speaks the most in a metaphorical way about the non-existent world. The author also refersto Walter Benjamin’s concept of the city as a book, and reads the history of multicultural Lublin, a kind of ghosttown, form this perspective.
