Plot:
We are in a Dystopia in the future. The world is divided in five factions to eliminate the reasons behind conflicts and wars. Each teen – regardless of what faction his family belongs to – chooses the group that he will join, follow and serve. Abnegation (the selfless), Amity (the peaceful), Candor (the honest), Erudite (the intelligent) or Dauntless (the brave). Whatever the choice there is only one rule: faction before blood!
The main protagonist, Trish (Shailene Woodley), is born in an Abnegation family but chooses to become a Dauntless. This is not the easiest thing to do. She competes hard and finally is accepted into her new “family”, with the help of Four (Theo James). But the day the Initiates become full members of the faction, a “storm” breaks … the leaders of Erudite and Dauntless have made a secret agreement to overthrow their government and become the new rulers. Did they made it? They would have, but for the Divergents…
