The Hunger Games is a film set in a post-apocalyptic time where people are separated by districts and are forced to participate in a game, The Hunger Games. The districts choose two representatives from each district to fight and kill representatives from other districts until one person is left. This film uses mental blindness to address, and make a statement on, psychosocial issues in this era. The concept of a mental blindness that impairs judgment is at the core of the oppressors’ tactics to control the populace. Although the oppressors are outnumbered by those they control, they maintain their control through creating fear, social separation, and changing mindsets, these themes are shown in The Hunger Games through different camera angles and colors.
