Medialna rzeczywistość w „Truman Show” (1998) Petera Weira w perspektywie myśli gnostyckiej

In the author’s opinion the story depicted in "The Truman Show" (1998) by Peter Weir comprises a reinterpretation of a Gnostic myth about the liberation of a „divine spark” from the material world. In spite of the fact that the director did not know about Gnosticism before he started to make the film, the author of the article presents that many motifs in his work can be viewed through the ideas expressed in various Gnostic systems. The Gnostic notions were reinterpreted in "The Truman Show" on a fundamental level of the world being presented in as well as in the narrative structure of the movie.
