District 8 female (74th HG)

Savannah was the female tribute from District 8 who participated in the 74th Hunger Games.

Tribute Parade


In the film, Savannah was first seen in the Tribute Parade with her district partner, wearing pink and blue costumes that symbolize jesters with a star pattern and bow hats on them. She was seen in quite a few shots during parade scenes, waving at the audience.

Training

 * The Savannah doesn't appear at the training, but her odds of winning were 5-1.

Cornucopia Bloodbath
The District 8 female survived the initial Cornucopia bloodbath, but her actress didn't shoot the bloodbath. It is presumed she got away from the bloodbath, since when the Careers found her she hasn't supplies.

The Games
She watched the Fallen images and tried to sleep, but she gave in to the cold and starts a fire near a tree which Katniss Everdeen was resting in, which Katniss thought was a "foolish" decision. Sure enough, the light from her fire attracted the Career tributes to her location during early morning. In the movie, Cato hands Glimmer his sword and she stabs her to death, and after Katniss heard her scream, the cannon sounded. In the book, Katniss heard her scream and no cannon sounded, so Peeta went back to finish her off, effectively killing her. She placed 13th out of 24 in the book and 12th out of 24 in the film.

Muttation
Following her death, her DNA was mixed with that of a wolf-like creature to create the "Muttations", which were the key figures for the finale of the 74th annual Hunger Games. One mutt was specifically described as having "red curls" by Katniss. That mutt could possibly symbolize the District 8 or 9 females, since both tributes share the red locks of bright auburn hair. Foxface, the last remaining redhaired tribute, already had her mutt singled out from her red hair and auburn eyes.

Trivia

 * In the film, she weighs 116 pounds and is 13 years old.
 * In the tribute parade, the females were standing on the left of the chariot and the males on the right except for District 8 were she stood on the right and the male on the left.
 * Her odds of winning were 5-1.
 * The District 8 tributes recieved high odds. They were overestimated, because his district partner was the first dead and she wasn't very intelligent, (since she lit a fire at night), this could have been because there is very little nature in District 8.
 * It was confirmed that the District 8 female, the District 9 male, the District 9 female and the District 10 female, were considered extra characters and they only shot the parade, but the District 9 male appeared in the training.
 * She lasted 8 hours, 12 minutes and 8 seconds in the Hunger Games.
 * She was the only tribute that died on day 2.
 * Her death was changed in the movie because when she sees the Careers, Cato gives Glimmer his sword instead of Cato killing her himself. Her cannon is also heard shortly after her scream whereas in the book, her death is held, as Cato only wounds her and Peeta has to finish her.
 * She was Peeta's only known direct kill in the 74th Hunger Games.
 * When she died, on the scoreboard behind Caesar, it can seen a wrong order of deaths: District 9 male; District 4 female; District 9 female; District 6 male; District 5 male; District 6 female; District 7 male; District 7 female; District 8 male; District 10 female; District 3 female; District 4 male.
 * She, along with Cato, was one of the tributes in the 74th Hunger Games to be mortally wounded and then mercifully killed. She was mortally wounded by Cato and then mercifully killed by Peeta in the book, while Cato was mauled by mutts, and mercifully killed by Katniss.
 * She was the highest placing unnamed female in the film, since Foxface had a nickname which was constantly used by Katniss and the District 4 female was killed before her in the film.
 * The night that Katniss was without a sleeping bag, she began to "have more sympathy" for the District 8 girl.
 * In The Hunger Games: Catching Fire she, like her district partner, appears as a holographic portrait in Katniss and Peeta's Victory tour. 180px-District8-victory-tour.jpg
 * As we can see in Katniss and Peeta's victory tour there is only one man and one women standing in her pedestal, so the District 8 female has no siblings, and in the pedestal of her district partner there is only one man, so he has no mother or siblings.

Film portrayal
She is portrayed by Mackenzie Lintz in the The Hunger Games film.
