Synopsis

Prequel to the trilogy "The Lord of the Rings" by J.R.R. Tolkien. In the company of the wizard Gandalf and thirteen dwarves, the hobbit Bilbo Baggins sets out on a journey through the land of the elves and the forests of the trolls, from the dungeons of the orcs to the Lonely Mountain, where the dragon Smaug hides the treasure of the Dwarves. Finally, in the depths of the Earth, he finds the One Ring, hypnotic object that will later be the cause of so many bloody battles in Middle-earth.
