Born of Hope: The Ring of Barahir is a 2009 British fantasy adventure fan film directed by Kate Madison and written by Paula DiSante based on the appendices of J. R. R. Tolkien's 1954–55 novel The Lord of the Rings. The film centres on the communities affected by Sauron's war; the Dúnedain bloodline; and the story of Arathorn II and his relationship with Gilraen as they would be the parents of Aragorn, who became a key leader against Sauron.
