The power of propaganda is used to keep the rich vs poor vibe maintained (Propaganda)
Katniss had made a choice to stand up for her younger sister (Hope)
The film itself is propaganda (Propaganda)

Quotes - May the odds be forever in your favour. (How can the odds be in the districts favour when they don't get half of what the Capitol gets and are not physically or mentally ready for the hunger games and don't know what to do and what not to do)
Hope is very powerful.
Something that knits us all together.

Hope and Rebellion
When Katniss and Petta choose to eat the berries at the end of the game because they don't want to play the game and kill one another.
Quote from Snow - Hope is very powerful

Opening Scene

Gives us a small history of the hunger games.
Quote - Something that knits us all together (That the hunger games creates a small and odd Community)

Opening Cards - There are three terms - Tribute, Reaping, GamesTribute - (Tribute in hunger games means something along the lines of people participating in something) another propaganda as the people in the film are people who are just sent unwillingly to their death
Reaping - Where 1 girl and boy are selected from each district to partake in the hunger games,
Games - Puts the hunger games into the games category. (It's a game no one really wants to play through if it means fighting to the death.)

Details - When Katniss goes to blow up the other teams food, you can hear Cesar talking but instead of seeing him you're seeing Katniss while overhearing Ceasers comments of if Katniss will figure out the booby trap.
