prkSwancon & Genghiscon are running a screening for The Hunger Games, one of the most eagerly anticipated movies for 2012.
"In a not-too-distant future, North America has collapsed, weakened by drought, fire, famine, and war to be replaced by Panem, a country divided into the Capitol and 12 districts. Each year two young representatives from each district are selected by lottery to participate in The Hunger Games. Part entertainment, part brutal intimidation of the subjugated districts, the televised games are broadcast throughout Panem. The 24 participants are forced to eliminate their competitors, literally, with all citizens required to watch. When 16-year-old Katniss' young sister, Prim, is selected as the mining district's female representative, Katniss volunteers to take her place. She and her male counterpart Peeta, will be pitted against bigger, stronger representatives who have trained for this their whole lives."
Based on the best selling young adult novel by Suzanne Collins, and with claims of staying faithful to the books, this movie has huge potential.
Join your fellow fans for the movie experience, and the guaranteed discussions, and debate afterwards.
This Friday, Belmont Reading Cinema, 6:15pm for a 6:30pm start.
Tickets are $15 full and $13 concession.
Please RSVP by 8pm tonight, via email to movies-2012 (at) swancon.com.au
