It is based on analysis of intertextual references, biblical themes and Christian symbolism, with an emphasis on the specifics of their integration into the author's creative concept and socio - political context. The introductory chapter provides insight into the issue of spirituality and spiritual dimension in Czech Film in 1960' and defines the creation of the period in terms of intertextuality, moral- ethical and formal aspect, thus creating three groups of films designated as biblical, sacred and spiritual.
