An optical solid body made of a solid transparent material for use in a light module of a motor vehicle lighting device. The optical solid body comprises a light coupling-in portion, via which light from a light source of the motor vehicle lighting device can be coupled into the optical solid body, and a light coupling-out portion, via which at least part of the light coupled into the optical solid body is coupled out of the optical solid body, so that the coupled-out light serves to generate at least part of a light distribution of the motor vehicle lighting device in front of the motor vehicle. The optical solid body further comprises an optically active layer arranged in the beam path between the coupling-in portion and the coupling-out portion, which is designed to modify incident light, wherein the optically active layer comprises at least one film.
