Blood diamond

Rating: Null/10 (22 November 2010)

In 1990's Sierra Leone, civil war and chaos happened. The rebels and government army always have wars, so that blood diamonds' price are progressively high. Solomon Vandy - a Mende fisherman is caught by the rebels and work in the diamond fields. Solomon finds a huge pink diamond and while hiding it, the commandant of the rebels sees, but the rebels are attacked and Salomon is arrested by the government army. In the prison the mercenary smuggler Danny Archer from Zimbabwe releases Solomon and proposes to exchange the diamond by his missing family and Solomon agree to cooperation with Archer and find the huge pink diamond. Using the American journalist Maddy Bowen, Archer finds the wife and daughters of Salomon in a refugee camp, but Salomon's son has been recruited by the rebels. And then they need to face the government army and the rebels—they both want the huge pink diamond.
I think that is a meaningful and moving story. It shows the human nature—everyone wants get more money but some people are not put money in the first seat. And I know more how the blood diamonds come from, so I will think clearly before I buy the diamond.
