Abstract. The article analyzes Y. I. Zamyatin’s screenplay "The Lower Depths" in relation to its literary source - A. M. Gorky’s play of the same name. The author examines the influence of A. M. Gorky’s ideas on Y. I. Zamyatin’s artistic intention, analyzes how the writer transforms dramatic story and the system of images as well as the peculiarities of transforming literary work into a screenplay addressed to a foreign - French - audience. Contrary to previous researches dedicated to Y. I. Zamyatin’s screenplay, the study focuses not on its history but on its textual and script-related artistic originality.
