The article analyses the director's strategy in A. Zvyagintsev's New-York, I Love You. This film is an observation, a cinematic deconstruction revealing the inner dramaturgy of the examined event. The film's semantic field is structured by the opposition the observer - the observed object. The scholar's task is to penetrate into the text's poetics based on double observation, i.e. the observation of the observer.
