The Hunger Games came out in 2012 and was directed by Gary Ross. It told the story of a society that forced teenagers to fight to the death while the wealthy watched it as entertainment. The movie’s message about inequality hit hard, and its three-finger salute became a real-world symbol of protest. People in countries like Thailand and Myanmar used it during demonstrations to show resistance against oppressive governments. Katniss Everdeen’s braid and practical outfits also became popular looks, mixing toughness with simplicity.
