Love stories. They are filled with tragedy, joy and all the emotions you can fit in a novel, a three-minute ballad, or a 14-line poem written in iambic pentameter. Love is depicted in many ways, but the question of what love is has never really gone away. In the sci-fi film The Fifth Element, the plot’s central claim is that love is (SPOILER ALERT) the fifth element, and the one thing that can save the world from alien annihilation.

Governments around the world are exercising their powers to steer the outcomes of the current global pandemic. Their decisions are affecting millions of people.
Some decisions have cost lives.
Unfolding before our eyes are the actions, or inactions of our elected governments.
