The people in power take advantage of the victim this concept continues to be document in literature and the media.

The prize is riches, fame and freedom from ever having to physically fight in the arena again. It is a game of violence, ferocity, and blood, and only one tribute can win. Even though stories often have a Battle between Good and Evil, it is Katniss’s internal conflict confronting her own good and evil that portrays humanity with a longing for destruction, violent inclination, and sense of separation.

With their hands clasped and bodies engulfed in flames, a screaming sea of people greeted Katniss and Peeta as they floated into view. The image of these two star crossed lovers surrounded by the energy of fire brought with it all the elements needed for a great story: danger, love, and sacrifice. Throughout The Hunger Games certain elements of the film draw on our emotions to engage the audience on multiple levels. Those emotional connections make for a stronger, more vivid memory (Phelps, 201). Memories that stick with the audience long after the movie is over. Katniss as the girl on fire brings us energy, danger, and hope. Peeta as a love struck teenager draws on our own love. President Snow, the face of the oppressive government, is portrayed as cold and calculating; leading to feelings of distrust. Finally, the hunger games themselves are paraded as a sort of celebration, and their reality show like qualities make them feel hollow.
