Methodological reflection on research focused on the creative process in non-written documents. Ostensibly, a video-recording of more than a hundred hours of rehearsals of Nigdy tu już nie powrócę (I Shall Never Return), staged by Cricot 2, preserved in the Cricoteka archive, and rendering available Tadeusz Kantor’s work on the spectacle, outright discloses both its origin and the director’s creative method. By adapting the instruments of genetic criticism the author of the article demonstrated assorted tensions between the intention of the artist, who employed an operator, and the mediation of the document, the excess of analytical material and its discontinuity, as well as the availability for the researcher of intimate information registered on video tapes and lost in successive minutes of the film.
