The trailer for The Hunger Games establishes the dystopian setting of Panem through several shots. It shows the protagonist climbing a fence to escape the restricted society, while discussing running away to live in the woods with a friend. However, another character believes they would not make it far before being caught by the dictators who enforce a life of mass poverty and oppression. Scenes depict the protagonists hiding in fear and everyone wearing drab, identical clothing with no individual expression or identity allowed. The trailer introduces the conflict of the annual Hunger Games that the main characters must enter.
