The Hobbit is the story of Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit who lives in Hobbiton. She enjoys a peaceful life in her elegant home, surrounded by beautiful surroundings. His life is suddenly interrupted when he is sitting on a bench with his eyes closed, enjoying life. Bilbo opens his eyes and in front of him is a tall, bearded man, dressed in a gray coat and holding a stick in his hand. It's Gandalf looking for someone to share an adventure with. Before Bilbo even knows what kind of adventure he's talking about, Gandalf has invited himself to tea. Together with him he is accompanied by twelve dwarves led by their leader Thorin Oakenshield. They will set out on an adventure to recover the dwarves' lost treasure and reclaim their old home, guarded by the dragon Smaug. Gandalf has decided that Bilbo will be a great addition to the team and will play the role of a thief, due to his physical characteristics. Even though Bilbo is very reductive about the idea, he cannot resist Gandalf's determination and signs up for the journey each. As they begin their journey, Bilbo has serious trust issues with the dwarves and worries about what they will encounter. Bilbo and the dwarves encounter all kinds of enemies and obstacles that test their mental well-being and force them to prepare for any potential threat. Sometimes they get into big trouble, but they manage to save themselves thanks to Bilbo's quick mind and stealth. During the journey, Gandalf heads to a place where they can rest. They walk through the lands of the elves and stay in the house of Elrond, an old friend of Gandalf. As they continue their journey they cross a mountain and find a cave where the group can spend the night. When everyone...... middle of paper ......d by the offer and that Bilbo has "betrayed" him, Thorin tries to avoid a fair deal. Meanwhile, elves, humans and dwarves have arrived to claim the treasure.

The elves, dwarves and humans band together to face the onslaught of Mordor. Finally the battle begins and what will be known as the "Battle of the Five Armies".
