Plot Synopsis

"The Hunger Games" movie is based on the best-selling young adult novel of the same name by Suzanne Collins.
The story setting is the area known as Panem, which occupies what used to be known as North America. In post apocalyptic times the area is divided into 12 districts controlled by dictatorship in a city known as Capital. Every year, twenty-four teenagers (one boy and one girl from each of the 12 districts) are drawn by lottery to play the "Hunger Games", a gladiator style survival game. The games have only one rule; you may not eat the players who have died, or otherwise commit cannibalism. The twenty-four teens must fight each other – the last player standing is the winner, and is rewarded with a life of comfort. The other twenty three players perish in the game.http://www.amazon.com/Hunger-Games-Suzanne-Collins/dp/043902348311
