The Hunger Games is set in a dystopian future where the nation of Panem is divided into 12 districts that are ruled by the Capitol, a wealthy and tyrannical city. Every year, the Capitol selects one boy and one girl from each district, called tributes, to participate in the Hunger Games, a televised event where they must fight to the death in a vast arena until only one remains. The Hunger Games are a means of entertainment for the Capitol and a punishment for the districts, who rebelled against the Capitol 74 years ago.
The film follows Katniss Everdeen, a 16-year-old girl from District 12, who volunteers to take her 12-year-old sister Prim's place when she is chosen as a tribute. Katniss is joined by Peeta Mellark, the male tribute from her district, who once saved her life by giving her bread. Together, they travel to the Capitol, where they are mentored by Haymitch Abernathy, a former victor of the Hunger Games who is now an alcoholic. They also meet Effie Trinket, their escort and representative; Cinna, their stylist; and Caesar Flickerman, the charismatic host of the Hunger Games.
In the Capitol, Katniss and Peeta undergo training and interviews to prepare for the Hunger Games. Katniss attracts attention for her skills with a bow and arrow, her fiery personality, and her mockingjay pin, a symbol of rebellion. Peeta surprises everyone by confessing his love for Katniss during his interview, creating a star-crossed lovers angle that appeals to the audience. The two are then sent to the arena, where they face dangers such as fireballs, tracker jackers (mutated wasps), and other tributes. Katniss allies with Rue, a young girl from District 11, who reminds her of Prim. However, Rue is killed by another tribute, which sparks a riot in District 11. Katniss honors Rue by covering her body with flowers and singing to her. 04f6b60f66
