Haymitch coaches them on how to sell themselves to the audience in hopes of getting sponsors while pointing them toward things they will need to survive. Throughout the movie, Katniss and Peeta prepare for the games with over-the-top events and interviews, plus some vital training sessions. The other tribute is Peeta Mellark ( Josh Hutcherson), a boy from the merchant class who is utterly and madly in love with Katniss, which the two use to their advantage with mentor Haymitch ( Woody Harrelson) to captivate the audience as the star-crossed lovers of District 12. This year, she is unlucky enough to find herself as a tribute in the 74th Hunger Games - an annual event where two tributes between the ages of 12 and 18, one male and one female, are forced to compete in a battle to the death for the Capitol’s entertainment as a reminder of their power and punishment for the districts’ failed rebellion. We enter through the eyes of Katniss Everdeen ( Jennifer Lawrence) from Panem’s most neglected district: District 12. The Capitol, where the wealthy and well-to-do live, is supported by the country’s twelve impoverished and hungry districts filled with workers who are forced to provide the city with the goods and services they need to live long, lavish, and luxurious lives. In The Hunger Games, based on the books by Suzanne Collins, we’re thrust into the world of Panem, a dystopian land set in the distant future.
