The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping

About the Movie

Set decades before Katniss Everdeen volunteered as tribute, 'Sunrise on the Reaping' chronicles the story of a young Haymitch Abernathy on the fateful morning of the 50th Hunger Games reaping. As dawn breaks over District 12, sixteen-year-old Haymitch faces the Quarter Quell—a special edition of the Games where twice the usual number of tributes are selected. Thrust into the Capitol's deadliest arena, Haymitch must navigate brutal alliances, lethal traps, and overwhelming odds in a fight for survival that will forge him into the cynical mentor Katniss and Peeta would later come to know. This is the story of how a clever, resourceful boy from the Seam became a victor, and the devastating price he paid for his survival. Witness the Games that broke Haymitch Abernathy and shaped the rebellion to come.
