Plot Synops:

The Hunger Games follows Katniss Everdeen, a xteen year old girl who lives in a post apocalyptic world. North America is no more, it has become a collapsed nation which has been displaced by Panem, a country that is divided into 12 districts. Each year, two young representatives are selected from each district via a lottery (one boy and one girl). The 24 winners then get to participate in The Hunger Games, which is an annual tournament run by a powerful government that operates in the central part of Panem, known as The Capital. The games are a brutal form of entertainment and they are broadcast throughout Panem. Each contestant must try to "eliminate" their competitors, or risk being "eliminated" themselves.

The Hunger Games is slated for a March 23, 2012 release.
