Watched this movie yesterday on DVD. One of the best movies released this year if you ask me.
The story revolves around the civil war in Sierra Leone and how diamonds were used illegally to fund their war efforts. Shows how greed can be a huge factor in the destruction of mankind.
I thought that the movie potrayed what happened in Sierra Leone pretty well (not that I have any experience with with Sierra Leone’s conflict).
What I learned from this movie: When buying diamonds, always insists on getting conflict-free diamonds 🙂
Go and watch it if you have the chance. I give the movie 4 out of 5 stars.
