YA Book Into Film Club – Divergent

September 20, 2014 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Divergent

Divergent

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Divergent is a 2014 American science fiction action film directed by Neil Burger, based on the novel of the same name by Veronica Roth. The film is the first installment in The Divergent Series and was produced by Lucy Fisher, Pouya Shabazian, and Douglas Wick, with a screenplay by Evan Daugherty and Vanessa Taylor. It stars Shailene Woodley, Theo James, Ashley Judd, Jai Courtney, Ray Stevenson, Zoë Kravitz, Miles Teller, Tony Goldwyn, Maggie Q and Kate Winslet. Production mostly took place in Chicago.

 The story takes place in a dystopian post-apocalyptic version of Chicago where people are divided into distinct factions based on human virtues. Beatrice Prior is warned that she is Divergent and thus will never fit into any one of the factions and soon learns that a sinister plot is brewing in her seemingly perfect society.

About the book from The Library Privateer

“At sixteen Beatrice Prior is about to make a choice that will dictate the rest of her life.  She will choose which of the five factions she will belong to.  Faction is stronger than blood these days.  Beatrice is from Abnegation, even if she feels like she does not belong there.  When her aptitude tests come back inconclusive, Tris takes a changes [sic] and chooses to become Dauntless, leaving her old home behind.  But she finds that life in Dauntless takes some getting used to and between her odd test results and her ties both past and present could lead to changes that will affect all of the factions.  This series is a great read.  Fun, fast paced, and original…”

The sequels in The Divergent Series are Insurgent, scheduled for release May 2015 and the 2-part Allegiant, scheduled for release March 2016 and March 2017 consecutively.
