In 1899, Lumière, through director Francesco Felicetti, shot “Voyage du Roi Humbert Ier en Sardaigne”, five current films that tell the story of the visit of the sovereign and Queen Margaret to the island.
The image of Sardinia made up of feuds, burdocks, bandits, exoticism and folklore has distant and complex origins analyzed, among other things, in works dedicated to the relationship between Grazia Deledda and cinema such as “Sardinian scenarios: Grazia Deledda between cinema and television”, edited by the film critic Gianni Olla and the Rai Sardegna broadcast “Grazia Quasi Cosima” (1987), created by Maria Piera Mossa with the collaboration of Jacopo Onnis.
