RINGERS: LORD OF THE FANS is a feature length documentary that explores how after 50 years The Lord of the Rings continues to spark the minds and hearts of millions of fans (called ‘ringers’) worldwide. Essential viewing for any Lord Of The Rings fan this smart interesting and entertaining look at the phenomenon features interviews with many ‘famous fans’ including PETER JACKSON and key cast and crew of the LOTR films and is hosted by LOST and LOTR star Dominic Monaghan. RINGERS boasts a dynamic rock-driven score with musicians who were influenced by J.R.R. Tolkien. Several indie recording artists have provided new covers of songs from previous “Rings” adaptations and has helped make RINGERS the most comprehensive film document of the ongoing fandom of The Lord of the Rings. From the hippie counter-culture to the electronic age; from the Bakshi animated film to Jackson’s epic trilogy; this documentary brings together extensive footage collected over 21 months and across three continents with cameras capturing the most energetic Lord of the Rings events. What began as the private amusement of an Oxford University professor has now become a new mythology for the 21st century. RINGERS: LORD OF THE FANS shows how an adventure story published in 1954 has had dynamic ripple-effects through Western pop-culture. RINGERS carefully pulls away the veil between Tolkien’s book and the creations of art music and community that have been inspired by it. An overwhelming favourite at film festivals across the U.S RINGERS was honoured with the “Outstanding Achievement in Filmmaking: Documentary” award at the 2005 Newport Beach Film Festival and has been described by film critics as “a documentary that will always be a salient part of the Lord of the Rings history” (FilmThreat.com)
