The aim of the article is to identify the structural and conceptual discrepancies underlying the script of the feature film «Mertvyj dom» (1932), directed by Vasilij Fëdorov. The script is written by Viktor Shklovskij (based on Dostoevskij’s novel «Zapiski iz Mertvogo doma»). The process of adapting and comparing different versions of the script thus becomes the focus of the text, from which Shklovskij’s journey emerges. Starting from a broader exploration of his work as a screenwriter, we will emphasise the differences between Shklovskij’s intended text and the final work presented by the director to the public. Preliminary analyses of the versions will focus on four of the six, the only ones that were available to us.

The process of adapting and comparing different versions of the script thus becomes the focus of the text, from which Shklovskij’s journey emerges. Starting from a broader exploration of his work as a screenwriter, we will emphasise the differences between Shklovskij’s intended text and the final work presented by the director to the public.
