BLOOD DIAMOND (USA, 2006) 143´ 14/10/2013.
October is The Black History Month in UK, and the Welcoming Cinema Club wants to contribute to this event, for that reason Blood Diamond will be screening.
This thriller was directed by Edward Zwick and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Connelly and Djimon Hounsou.The film is set in Sierra Leona, in 1999. Rebel factions such as the Revolutionary United Front frequentl terrorize the open countryside, intimidating Mende locals and enslaving many to harvest diamonds, which fund their increasingly successful war effort. One such unfortunate is fisherman Solomon Vandy, who has been assigned to a workforce overseen by a ruthless warlord, Captain Poison.
The film was supported by Amnesty International and it helped to bring attention to the role that diamonds play in many African wars.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE FILM CONTAINS VIOLENT SCENES
