ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
“The Hunger Games” by Suzanne Collins is set in a dystopian future where the totalitarian Capitol controls the twelve districts of Panem. Every year, a boy and a girl from each district are selected to compete in the Hunger Games, a televised fight to the death. Katniss Everdeen, a young girl from District 12, volunteers to take her sister’s place in the Games. As she navigates the brutal arena, she forms alliances, faces moral dilemmas, and grapples with the oppressive regime. Themes of survival, sacrifice, rebellion, and the manipulation of media are central to the story.
