Sole in mano (o appropriazione, a propria azione, azione propria)

About This Movie

Sole in mano is a fascinating piece that plays with perception and reality in a very unconventional way. It opens on a dark screen, and then you see this hand, the artist’s hand, almost like it's trying to engage with the viewer or shield them from something. The black and white visuals lend a haunting quality, with the landscape undulating in a way that feels almost alive, yet unnerving. The pacing is deliberate, inviting you to dwell in the moments, rather than rush through them. Its themes of appropriation and personal action linger long after viewing, making it distinctive in its ability to provoke thought. It's less about a narrative and more about an experience, which is intriguing for those of us who appreciate the experimental side of cinema.

Sole in mano is quite the rarity in collector circles, often discussed but not easily found. Its obscure director adds to the mystique, and many collectors seek out any available prints. The film's experimental nature makes it a captivating conversation piece for those who appreciate avant-garde cinema. While it's not the most mainstream title, its unique visual style and themes ensure it garners interest among serious collectors.
