Abstract
The article examines the image of the city on the example of the film “The Man Who Sleeps”, released in 1974. The presented film accumulates the first experimental experiences of avant-garde cinema of the 1920s in working with image and sound and tries to create a new narrative, resorting to the actual social issues of 1970s, in particular to issue of private and public space. Private and public spaces, considered in the film as part of general urban space, are spaces of repetitive actions and practices of the protagonist filmed in a chaotic sequence. The city is understood as constantly changing construction where the line between subjective perception of the protagonist of the city and objective perception for which the movie camera, CCTV cameras are responsible is blurred.
