The aim of the article is to outline the picture of Lodz and the Lodz region emerging from the radio documentaries of Kamila Litman from Radio Lodz. The material base includes 17 broadcasts from the years 2012–2022. The study uses the method of comparative analysis, taking into account the threads related to Lodz and the region taken up in documentaries, as well as formal solutions for portraying the Lodz region. In the analysed programmes, these issues are presented from the perspective of people, events and places related to the city or region, both in contemporary and historical terms. What emerges particularly clearly from them are, for example, the Jewish issues, but also the image of the city (and the region), where landmark events for the entire country have often taken place. The dramaturgy of the radio documentaries about the Lodz region is built on the basis of oppositions such as memory and oblivion, past and present, or scenes – audio images with a strong emotional charge, and the sound face of the city is co-created by the voices of its inhabitants or people associated with it, as well as numerous archival materials and music.
