5-Point Star:

Argentina: Hope in Hard Times (2005) - In 2001 the Argentine economy collapsed.  Even those who were middle class learned how it felt to be hungry and poor.  With times so hard, people might have turned on each other in fear and desperation, but instead they turned to each other in mutual support.  Amidst a failed economy, distrusted politicians, heartache and hard times, there was a resurgence of grass roots democracy, and an irrepressible spirit of community.
