À la recherche du Hobbit (French for Looking for the Hobbit) is an exploratory documentary series directed by Olivier Simonnet in 2014, in which illustrator John Howe, story-teller Nicolas Mezzalira, and Professor Leo Carruthers of the University of Paris-Sorbonne explore real-world settings and famous myths that inspired J.R.R. Tolkien's mythology. The documentary explores many locations of Medieval significance.
John Howe, the famous illustrator of Tolkien's novels and the conceptual artist for Peter Jackson's films, decided to find out more and set off in search of the legends - and the places that gave rise to them.
