Lost in the Dark (Italian: Sperduti nel buio) is a 1914 Italian silent drama film directed by Nino Martoglio and starring Giovanni Grasso Sr., Maria Carmi and Virginia Balestrieri. Documenting life in the slums of Naples, it is considered a precursor to the Italian neorealism movement of the 1940s and 1950s. The only known surviving copy of this film was destroyed by Nazi German forces during World War II.[1] The film is based on a 1901 play of the same title by Roberto Bracco.
