Tolkien explores the formative years of the orphaned author as he finds friendship, love and artistic inspiration among a group of fellow outcasts at school. This takes him into the outbreak of WW1, which threatens to tear their fellowship apart. All of these experiences go on to inspire Tolkien to write his famous Middle Earth novels

Although not endorsed or authorised by the Tolkien estate this film is a superbly moving tribute to the young Tolkien, exuding quality and making many good points of what influence his school friendships the great war had on his later books. Some superb imagery, acting, well worth a watch.
