BLOOD DIAMOND

I watched Blood Diamond on DVD. This film is directed by Edward Zwick and starring Leonardo DiCaprio. This is an advancer film. I was surprised to know that many people have killed for diamond.

Not so long years ago, civil wars had broken out in Sierra Leonean. One day Solomon’s town were raided by RUF - Revolutionary United Front. He could save his family but he was captured from RUF. His work was searching for diamond. Many prisoners were working at there and many RUF soldiers overlooked prisoners. If prisoner put diamond in his pocket, he killed immediately. One day, Solomon found big pink diamond. He put is between his toes. He pretended to go toilet and tried to bury it. But the RUF boss was looking him. At that time, attack from government was started. He buried it and ran away but he caught by government and he entered jail.

At the jail, Solomon met Danny. Danny is a diamond buyer and he thought rob Solomon of his pink diamond. Danny and Solomon went to Sierra Leonean again and looked for the diamond. Many people aimed them and diamond.

Finally Danny and Solomon got the diamond. At first, Danny plotted to grab the diamond, but he shot and he couldn’t move any more. So he said to Solomon that get much money and get back him family by this diamond. Danny instructed to deal with London’s big diamond company and ask Solomon to disclose the company’s injustice. Unfortunately, Danny died, but the numbers of blood diamonds were decreased.

In fact, many blood diamonds were sold for people. In 2003, the regulation for blood diamond was established. But it is not clear if there are no blood diamonds on market. We must keep in mind that many people have been killed for diamond.
