We love The Fifth Element

Based upon the intriguing novel by Terry Bisson, The Fifth Element was brought to the big screen by director Luc Besson. Some fans of the novel loved the movie, others were disappointed in it.

The novel takes place on 23rd century earth and relates to inter-dimensional cohesion. Every 5,000 years, a door opens between the dimensions. In one dimension lies the universe and all of its multitude of varied life forms. In another exists an element made not of earth, air, fire or water, but anti-energy, anti-life. This element waits at the threshold of the universe for an opportunity to extinguish all life and all light. But there is another "element" which is the key to fighting back the darkness, this is the "Fifth Element".
