Summary/Abstract: The film by Stanisław Różewicz On the Hideout (original title: Na melinę) was included in the series of television films Day One, Last Day (original title: Dzień ostatni, dzień pierwszy, 1965). For many reasons, however, it was detained by censorship, although it represented high artistic values. The article is an attempt to examine both the content of the film itself and its literary prototype, as well as the answer to the question why it has not been broadcast for over 15 years.
