Sole is the first film by the great Alessandro Blasetti and bears a complex relationship to the reclamation of the Pontine Marshes, a seminal event in Fascist political history. Sole is also an important document in Italian film history. Its use of non-professional actors and location shooting began the movement away from studio spectacle and historical costume epic toward Italian film realism. Along with Blasetti's later film 1860 (1934), Sole includes many of the cinematic and humanistic traits of neorealism and underscores Blasetti's role as one of its progenitors.
