"Divergent"

"Divergent" is set well into the future where society is split into five factions: Abnegation (for those who are selfless), Erudite (for those who are intelligent), Dauntless (for those who are fearless), Candor (for those who are brutally honest), and Amity (for those who are peaceful). The film's protagonist, Tris Prior (Shailene Woodley), chooses Dauntless, because she strives for bravery, adventure, and a little bit of danger. However, when she learns that her true identity is Divergent — this faction includes people who are made up of multiple characteristics from different factions — she's put on the government's hit list. A war ensues when it's made aware that there are Divergents, who are seen as too powerful, among the many factions. Teller plays Peter, who is Dauntless and a frenemy of Tris's.
