The Hunger Games

In the ruins of what was once North America, the country of Panem requires a teenage boy and girl from each of its twelve districts to participate in the Hunger Games every year. At the Hunger Games, a nationally televised competition, "Tributes" compete against one another until only one survivor is left. It is a combination of twisted entertainment and government intimidation. Katniss is forced to rely on her keen intuition and the guidance of inebriated former winner Haymitch Abernathy as she faces off against highly skilled Tributes who have trained for these Games their entire lives. Katniss has to make difficult decisions in the arena that pit life against love and survival against humanity if she ever wants to return home to District 12. Everyone will be observing.
