Someone somewhere obtains the original file, say a movie or series. They then create a torrent file for those items in a torrent program like Azureus (File -> New Torrent). The file contains simple information like the file list, and also the url of the tracker. The file is then uploaded to a torrent site, where people can download it.
The downloaded torrent connects to the tracker, which sends back connection information of all the other people currently connected, and the file is shared.
