Blood Diamond, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Djimon Hounsou and Jennifer Connelly, is the story of what the diamond trade did to Sierra Leone.A diamond smuggler, a fisherman, and a reporter join forces in the midst of civil war. The fisherman, whose family is missing after the raid of his village, finds a huge diamond while working in a labor camp. Instead of giving the diamond to his captors to buy more weapons, he hides it.
The smuggler hears of the diamond and plans to steal it from the fisherman once he is led to its hiding place.
The reporter wants to expose the foreign diamond interests who make the war so lucrative.
Together they will travel through Sierra Leone at the height of danger (1999) to find the diamond and save the fisherman's family.
This is the human story of the diamond trade. It is an excellent film. The acting is superb.
