On setting up The Bureau with Bertrand Faivre in 2000, Sol co-produced Dagur Kari's debut multi award winning feature "Noi Albinoi", as well as Christian Carion's Academy Award Nominated "Joyeux Noël" and Diane Bertrand's second feature "L'Annulaire". Most recently Sol produced the multi-award winning "Glue" by Alexis Dos Santos which premiered at Rotterdam and Toronto in 2006.

Sol's shorts "Going Down", "Bait" , "Bubbles" and "Cockling" won numerous international nominations and awards including BAFTA nominations for two consecutive years (1999 and 2000), the Grand Prix du Jury at Angers, Best Drama at the British Short Film Festival, and Best Short Film at the US's Newport Film Festival.

Sol is currently financing Alexis Dos Santos' debut "Unmade Beds" alongside Peter Ettedgui, as well as developing the feature of "Hell Bent For Leather" to be written and directed by James Wood, and “Love You, Love You Not” written by award winning writers Jonathan Pett & Fiorela Ruas, with the brilliant French producer Alain Benguigui.  Sol is also working with Spanish producer Alejandra Frade to produce a trilogy of films for Michael Radford, “La Mula” which is currently being financed, and "Voices of the Old Sea" which is in development.  Both films are being written by Ignacio del Moral.  The last of the trilogy is under discussion.  Sol is also developing “Intensive Clare” a transvestite punk rock karaoke, cabaret come Rocky Horror comedy sketch show staring the multi talented Clare Nichols.
