The final scene shows Katniss telling her baby about the plants in the meadow. She admits that the hunger (the emotional kind) never fully goes away, but that Peeta’s love holds it at bay.

The film’s climax is famous for its subversion of tropes. Without spoiling the specifics for new viewers, the "final battle" isn't a glorious duel between Katniss and President Snow (Donald Sutherland). Instead, it’s a chaotic, heartbreaking sequence that highlights the "collateral damage" of war.
