Tolkien
This film explores the reality of the formative years of the orphaned author Tolkien where he finds friendship, love and artistic inspiration among a group of colleagues like him in school. The film began with the life story of this author since the outbreak of World War I, which threatened to tear apart the 'fellowship' at the time. This author lived further experiences that would inspire Tolkien to write his famous novels.
