The Hunger Games

In a dystopian future, the totalitarian nation of Panem is divided into 12 districts and the Capitol. Each year, two young representatives from each district are chosen by lottery to participate in The Hunger Games. Part entertainment, part brutal revenge for a past rebellion, televised matches are broadcast throughout Panem. The 24 participants are forced to eliminate their opponents while the citizens of Panem are asked to watch. When Katniss' 16-year-old sister, Prim, is chosen as District 12's female representative, Katniss volunteers to take her place. She and her male partner, Peeta, are pitted against larger, stronger representatives, some of whom have trained their entire lives for this purpose.
