The purpose of this paper is a multidimensional analysis of the problem of power in the film Matnia by Roman Polański. Using the ups and downs of three heroes as a starting point of the deliberations, the author proves that the effectiveness of power is not only in physical strength and the will to dominate but rather in the readiness to be subordinated. This readiness is generated in the heroes by such factors as vast and unprotected space of the castle, making of one of the main heroes – George – a female character, the failure of the institution of marriage (evidence of George’s wife’s unfaithfulness appears in the film), the powerlessness of language, which makes opposing the oppressor difficult, and finally omnipotence of the affect understood as a key to the interpretation of postmodern power structures.

The text discusses the theory of Marc Augé’s non-places. In this article the author focuses on the relation between non-places and identity, and answers the question of to what extent it is possible to transform non-places to places – one of the Augé’s theses is that there are close relations between these two categories. According to the author, this change can be made thanks to the external media. The websites such as Facebook and YouTube, allow a symbolic transformation of a status of non-places, their rearrangement. In the study the author also proposes to expand Augé’s dictionary to include a category of analgetic places and non-places of affect.
