The 74th Hunger Game is about to begin. In the wild, everyone wants to kill you. Can you survive on your own? Twenty-four people took part in the competition, and only one survived.
On the day of the lottery, Katniss' life changed completely. In the future North America, Pan-American was built on the ruins, and its center, Kapit, is located in the middle of twelve districts. Every year, twelve districts are forced to send a boy and a girl from 12 to 18 to Shouxin as a "tribute" to participate in the "Hunger Game". This is a cruel and terrible competition between life and death. All tributes must fight to the death, and the last survivor is the winner.
The arena is a man-made forest and wasteland. During the competition, life and death scenes such as hunting, stalking, hunger, camouflage and wits-fighting are broadcast live to the whole country on TV, and everyone must watch them as a festival to celebrate. For Kapit, this is an annual event and a game; For the other twelve districts, it is humiliation and torture.
Survival is the instinct of 16-year-old Katniss. She barely supports her mother, sister and herself by poaching and collecting wild fruits outside the wall of 12 area. When Katniss took the place of her sister who won the "life and death lottery" to participate in the hunger game, she knew it meant death for her. If she wants to survive, she must choose between humanity and survival, death and love.
In the arena, Katniss was accidentally portrayed as a "burning girl" and formed a "star lover" with another tribute Pita in this area, which attracted much attention. She's confused about her relationship with pita? Her attempt to save the lives of other competitors and her witty response to puzzles in the competition made her the focus of TV viewers' attention. She found that love can also be a winning strategy.
Katniss can only continue to be herself. That stubborn girl, she refused to give in to the rules of the game, refused to give in to death, refused to give in to love. What will her refusal bring and what will happen in the future?
