Here is the tag line / description from the movie gods out there...
"Set against the backdrop of the chaos and civil war that enveloped 1990s Sierra Leone, Blood Diamond is the story of Danny Archer (DiCaprio), an ex-mercenary from Zimbabwe, and Solomon Vandy (Hounsou), a Mende fisherman. Both men are African, but their histories and their circumstances are as different as any can be until their fates become joined in a common quest to recover a rare pink diamond, the kind of stone that can transform a life... or end it."
I haven't seen it yet, so I can't say much more on this here soapbox yet. But it is an interesting premise for a movie, yup yup it is.
