00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:10.300
Dia.
2
00:01:15.300 --> 00:01:17.700
English boys don't go
to school every day.
3
00:02:48.900 --> 00:02:51.400
Teacher say this country
was founded as a utopia.
4
00:02:51.600 --> 00:02:54.200
Do you know
what that word means, Papa?
5
00:02:54.300 --> 00:02:56.700
Well, she says someday
when the war is over...
6
00:02:56.900 --> 00:02:59.300
...our world will be a paradise.
7
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:01.800
And all this you learn in one day?
8
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.100
And math and science.
9
00:03:04.500 --> 00:03:08.400
This is too much learning. Tomorrow,
you will stay home and mend the nets, yes?
10
00:03:08.500 --> 00:03:09.600
No, Papa.
11
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:12.100
What? So now you want
to go to school every day?
12
00:03:46.100 --> 00:03:47.100
- Stay.
- Papa.
13
00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:48.600
- Stay!
- Papa!
14
00:04:25.200 --> 00:04:26.300
Jassie!
15
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:28.300
Solomon.
16
00:04:41.500 --> 00:04:43.000
Come, come, come.
17
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:50.100
Pick it up. Quick.
18
00:04:50.900 --> 00:04:53.600
- Papa! Papa!
- Jassie.
19
00:04:53.700 --> 00:04:56.600
- Dia, run!
- Papa!
20
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.800
- Papa! Papa!
- Dia, run!
21
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:06.100
Papa!
22
00:05:22.300 --> 00:05:24.300
Bring forward the next one. Bastard.
23
00:05:24.500 --> 00:05:26.100
Bring forward the next one.
24
00:05:27.900 --> 00:05:30.200
- Long sleeve or short sleeve?
- No.
25
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:34.200
Young man. You must understand.
26
00:05:34.400 --> 00:05:37.100
The government wants you to vote, okay?
27
00:05:37.200 --> 00:05:40.900
They gonna tell you say,
"The future is in your hands."
28
00:05:41.100 --> 00:05:43.300
We now the future.
29
00:05:43.500 --> 00:05:45.100
So we take your hands.
30
00:05:45.200 --> 00:05:47.700
- No.
- No more hands, no more voting.
31
00:05:49.900 --> 00:05:51.200
Chop him.
32
00:05:54.900 --> 00:05:58.800
Spread the word.
The Revolutionary United Front is coming.
33
00:06:00.300 --> 00:06:04.600
- RUF!
- RUF! RUF!
34
00:06:06.500 --> 00:06:10.100
Bring forward the next one.
Bring him forward. Bring him forward.
35
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:14.900
Long sleeve or short sleeve?
36
00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:17.800
- Short sleeve!
- Chop him.
37
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:20.400
Hold on, hold on. Wait, wait, wait.
38
00:06:22.700 --> 00:06:24.200
Not this one. Look at him.
39
00:06:25.200 --> 00:06:26.700
- Put him in the truck.
- Let's go.
40
00:06:26.900 --> 00:06:28.300
Bring him to the mines.
41
00:06:28.500 --> 00:06:30.600
He can work. He can work.
Move, move, move.
42
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:32.600
Next one, next one, next one.
43
00:06:38.100 --> 00:06:39.700
Throughout the history of Africa...
44
00:06:40.200 --> 00:06:42.400
...whenever a substance
of value is found...
45
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.100
...the locals die
in great number and in misery.
46
00:06:47.700 --> 00:06:53.000
Now, this was true of ivory,
rubber, gold and oil.
47
00:06:53.200 --> 00:06:54.600
It is now true of diamonds.
48
00:06:56.700 --> 00:07:00.200
According to a devastating report
by Global Witness...
49
00:07:00.400 --> 00:07:05.200
...these stones are being used
to purchase arms and finance civil war.
50
00:07:05.400 --> 00:07:08.200
We must act to prohibit...
51
00:07:08.400 --> 00:07:12.700
...the direct or indirect import
of all rough diamonds from conflict zones.
52
00:07:19.300 --> 00:07:20.300
May I remind you...
53
00:07:20.500 --> 00:07:25.400
...that the U.S. is responsible for two-thirds
of all diamond purchases worldwide...
54
00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:29.200
...and I don't anticipate
that demand diminishing.
55
00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:31.600
We must remember
that these stones...
56
00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:36.700
...comprise only a small percentage
of the legitimate diamond industry...
57
00:07:36.900 --> 00:07:41.800
...whose trade is crucial to the economies
of many emerging nations.
58
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:45.200
The Freetown government
and their white masters...
59
00:07:45.400 --> 00:07:48.000
...have raped your land
to feed their greed.
60
00:07:48.200 --> 00:07:50.300
RUF have freed you.
61
00:07:50.500 --> 00:07:53.800
- No more slave and master here.
- It's true.
62
00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:59.100
Current estimates are that conflict stones
account for only 15 percent of the market.
63
00:07:59.200 --> 00:08:01.600
But in a multi-billion-dollar-a-year
industry...
64
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:04.900
...that means hundreds of millions
of dollars are available...
65
00:08:05.100 --> 00:08:07.000
...for weapons in these conflict zones.
66
00:08:07.100 --> 00:08:09.600
RUF is fighting for the people!
67
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:12.500
RUF is fighting for Sierra Leone!
68
00:08:12.700 --> 00:08:17.600
Any bastard think he would joke
with me diamond, I go cut he throat.
69
00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:20.900
Stop!
70
00:08:22.100 --> 00:08:26.300
And we are joined today
by members of that diamond industry...
71
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:30.100
...who wholeheartedly
endorse your proposal.
72
00:08:30.300 --> 00:08:34.000
I hope you join me
in applauding their presence here.
73
00:08:34.100 --> 00:08:37.400
Mr. Van De Kaap and Mr. Simmons.
74
00:08:46.300 --> 00:08:48.000
Give it to me.
75
00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:24.900
Don't worry. We'll be fine, huh?
76
00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:29.400
Listen. You take off
as soon as I'm out the door.
77
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:32.000
You don't land
until I raise you on the sat phone.
78
00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:34.800
You be careful, Danny.
79
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.500
Don't worry. They want these guns
too much to do anything stupid.
80
00:09:53.400 --> 00:09:55.400
Where is Commander Zero?
81
00:09:57.600 --> 00:09:59.800
I am Captain Rambo.
82
00:10:00.900 --> 00:10:04.200
Right. Right, I've seen your films, huh?
83
00:10:07.400 --> 00:10:09.800
I'm looking for Commander Zero, huh?
84
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:11.800
He's inside. You talk to me.
85
00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:14.900
You are here to help us
in our struggle against the government.
86
00:10:15.100 --> 00:10:17.700
I'm here to do business
with Commander Zero, all right?
87
00:10:34.100 --> 00:10:35.500
All right.
88
00:10:35.700 --> 00:10:39.900
You are the man, huh?
You are the man.
89
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:44.200
Here, huh?
90
00:10:56.300 --> 00:10:59.300
Hey. I'm talking to you! Stop!
91
00:10:59.400 --> 00:11:01.500
- Commander Zero.
- Hey.
92
00:11:01.700 --> 00:11:04.300
- I go kill you, eh?
- It's fine, huh? It's fine.
93
00:11:04.500 --> 00:11:08.100
Commander Zero. Commander Zero.
94
00:11:08.300 --> 00:11:11.300
Mr. Archer, come here.
95
00:11:18.800 --> 00:11:20.100
You get something for me?
96
00:11:20.300 --> 00:11:22.900

00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:27.300

99
00:11:47.500 --> 00:11:48.800
This no fine.
100
00:11:55.900 --> 00:11:57.300
...and their new weapons, huh?
101
00:11:57.500 --> 00:11:59.800
Maybe I could kill you
and take what you bring.
102
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:01.900
Then you get one more dead body...
103
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:04.700
...instead of airplane
way full with grenade launchers.
104
00:12:05.700 --> 00:12:07.900
So I'm think I'm gonna go
to them government.
105
00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:10.500
Them government,
at least them go pay me, huh?
106
00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:13.500
Wait, wait. Wait, my friend.
107
00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:19.800
This is the thing you want? Here.
108
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:22.200
So many I not know
what to do with them all.
109
00:12:22.800 --> 00:12:25.800
Hey, Archer, next time,

110
00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:28.800
- I wanna see Baywatch.
- Yeah.
111
00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:30.400
Yeah. Yeah.
112
00:12:54.400 --> 00:12:55.900
Hello, hello, hello.
113
00:12:57.300 --> 00:12:59.000
Papers, please.
114
00:12:59.400 --> 00:13:01.400
Danny Archer, National Geographic.
115
00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:06.100
You crossing into Liberia.
116
00:13:06.300 --> 00:13:09.900
I've got a letter from the minister of interior
and a Liberian visa as well.
117
00:13:10.100 --> 00:13:12.600
I'm doing a story on the Marrakaz,
who, as you know...
118
00:13:12.700 --> 00:13:16.100
...are allowed to cross the border
in order to get into grazing grounds.
119
00:13:16.500 --> 00:13:18.600
You ever read National Geographic, huh?
120
00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:02.300
- You're under arrest for smuggling.
- No, no, no.
121
00:14:02.400 --> 00:14:05.100
Listen here, my friend.
Listen here, all right?
122
00:14:05.300 --> 00:14:07.800
I am good friends
with Colonel Coetzee.
123
00:14:08.300 --> 00:14:12.300
Colonel Coetzee would not be pleased
that you've interfered with his business.
124
00:14:12.400 --> 00:14:14.100
Now, you know who I am, all right?
125
00:14:14.300 --> 00:14:17.200
You don't wanna make trouble for me
or my friends, all right?
126
00:14:17.400 --> 00:14:21.100
Now, look, why don't I just
look the other way, all right?
127
00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:24.900
You take one or two of those stones
and get something lacquer for the wife...
128
00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:28.900
...or maybe the mistress, all right?
We'll solve the problem right here, huh?
129
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:32.300
We'll go back to Freetown
and ask Colonel Coetzee...
130
00:14:32.500 --> 00:14:35.500
...how he wishes
to thank his business associate.
131
00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:37.300
Guys, take him away.
132
00:15:23.900 --> 00:15:26.200
Hey! What the fuck?
What's going on there?
133
00:15:26.400 --> 00:15:28.200
Come on! Fix that shit now!
134
00:15:28.400 --> 00:15:31.700
Wasting my time here!
What in the shit is that?
135
00:15:32.400 --> 00:15:35.500
Fuck that stuff! Fix that shit!
Damn, now need to work.
136
00:15:35.700 --> 00:15:37.600
- Can't work. What's going on there?
- Boss.
137
00:15:37.800 --> 00:15:40.600
- Fix that thing.
- I wanna go toilet. I must go now, now.
138
00:15:40.800 --> 00:15:44.100
- I can't hold it in, boss.
- Go, go.
139
00:15:44.400 --> 00:15:46.400
Get to work. Go to work, go to work.
140
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:50.700
Fuckheads wasting my time now.
How am I work in this shit?
141
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:57.500
Stop!
142
00:15:59.500 --> 00:16:01.500
Spread your fingers.
143
00:16:02.600 --> 00:16:04.000
Open.
144
00:16:19.400 --> 00:16:21.200
Make it quick.
145
00:16:57.100 --> 00:16:58.800
Give it to me.
146
00:17:01.500 --> 00:17:03.100
Give it to me.
147
00:17:03.800 --> 00:17:05.800
The government troops are coming!
148
00:17:10.900 --> 00:17:13.300
Go, go, go--!
149
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:45.800
No, no, no!
150
00:17:45.900 --> 00:17:48.600
No! I'm not a rebel!
151
00:18:27.100 --> 00:18:30.000
RUF is coming! RUF is coming!
152
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:34.100
RUF is coming! RUF is coming!
RUF is coming!
153
00:18:34.300 --> 00:18:38.400
RUF is coming! RUF is coming!
RUF is coming!
154
00:18:38.600 --> 00:18:42.900
RUF is coming! RUF is coming!
RUF is coming!
155
00:18:49.500 --> 00:18:51.500
RUF! RUF! RUF!
156
00:18:51.700 --> 00:18:54.500
RUF! RUF! RUF!
157
00:18:54.700 --> 00:18:57.100
RUF! RUF! RUF!
158
00:18:57.200 --> 00:18:59.700
RUF! RUF! RUF!
159
00:19:05.600 --> 00:19:07.000
Hey.
160
00:19:07.600 --> 00:19:09.500
What did you do with it?
161
00:19:09.700 --> 00:19:11.800
I'm talking to you, you hear me?
162
00:19:13.300 --> 00:19:16.400
Where the diamond? The pink one.
163
00:19:16.600 --> 00:19:19.400
- I saw you take it.
- You're mad. I do not know you.
164
00:19:19.600 --> 00:19:23.500
Liar! I saw it with my own eyes.
165
00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:28.300
This big. Biggest I have ever seen.
166
00:19:29.800 --> 00:19:33.100
My brothers, I go give $1000...
167
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:36.700
...to the man who cuts the diamond
out of this bastard.
168
00:19:36.900 --> 00:19:40.300
You the craze! You the craze!
169
00:19:40.500 --> 00:19:42.100
Where is the diamond?
170
00:19:42.300 --> 00:19:45.500
Where is the diamond?
Do you see a diamond?
171
00:19:46.600 --> 00:19:51.500
You devils have taken my family!
My home! I done lost everything!
172
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:55.800
Here, look. What is left?
173
00:19:56.000 --> 00:19:57.900
What is left?
174
00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:00.700
If there is a diamond,
you are the one who has taken it!
175
00:20:00.900 --> 00:20:02.800
Liar! The man is a liar!
176
00:20:03.500 --> 00:20:07.300
I know your name, Solomon Vandy!
You have a name!
177
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:11.500
You have a family!
And I'll catch them!
178
00:20:11.700 --> 00:20:13.500
And I'll find them!
179
00:20:30.800 --> 00:20:33.500
Please tell me you brought me
cigarettes, bru, please.
180
00:20:33.700 --> 00:20:35.100
I just have to tell you, Danny.
181
00:20:35.300 --> 00:20:38.300
The colonel's not going to be happy
about you losing the diamonds.
182
00:20:38.500 --> 00:20:41.300
Forget the colonel.
There's a fisherman in there, all right?
183
00:20:41.500 --> 00:20:44.100
He might've found a pink. Big one.
184
00:20:44.300 --> 00:20:46.400
What about the colonel?
He'll want that stone.
185
00:20:46.600 --> 00:20:49.100
Screw the colonel.
I'll contact our friends in London.
186
00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:53.100
If this stone is as big as I think,
we're gonna need a real buyer, all right?
187
00:20:53.600 --> 00:20:56.400
What? What?
188
00:20:56.500 --> 00:20:59.200
London wants nothing more
to do with you.
189
00:20:59.800 --> 00:21:03.900
"Arrest in Sierra Leone of Daniel Archer,
former mercenary and smuggler..."
190
00:21:04.100 --> 00:21:06.700
"Retains close ties
to Van De Kaap diamond cartel.
191
00:21:06.900 --> 00:21:10.000
Sources say they deny
any affiliation whatso--"
192
00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:12.300
Fucking hell.
193
00:21:13.800 --> 00:21:15.900
Listen, his name
is Solomon Vandy, all right?
194
00:21:16.000 --> 00:21:19.700
Van De Kaap is gonna want that stone,
whatever they say. You just get him out.
195
00:21:19.900 --> 00:21:21.500
Get him out.
196
00:21:24.500 --> 00:21:29.400
Yeah, can you tell Mr. Simmons
that Danny Archer called. Right.
197
00:21:29.800 --> 00:21:33.600
Archer. A-R-C-H-E-R.
198
00:21:57.700 --> 00:21:59.400
Afternoon, darling, huh?
199
00:21:59.600 --> 00:22:03.500
Big white man all alone.
That is no fine.
200
00:22:03.600 --> 00:22:08.100
- I'm safe, huh? No HIV.
- Yeah, yeah. I've heard that one before.
201
00:22:08.300 --> 00:22:11.500
Archer, I know where to get
nice baby diamond just for you.
202
00:22:11.700 --> 00:22:13.600
- Not now, next time.
- Come on, Archer.
203
00:22:13.800 --> 00:22:16.100
I said not now, next time. Bugger off.
204
00:23:08.200 --> 00:23:10.100
Solomon Vandy?
205
00:23:11.100 --> 00:23:13.000
What do you want?
206
00:23:13.100 --> 00:23:16.000
It seems you made a friend in prison.
207
00:23:41.100 --> 00:23:43.300
- Hey.
- How the body, Mr. Archer?
208
00:23:43.500 --> 00:23:45.300
The body fine, M'Ed.
209
00:23:50.500 --> 00:23:52.300
So you want something nice, huh?
210
00:23:52.900 --> 00:23:55.600
The best you can get ahold of, all right?
211
00:23:55.800 --> 00:23:59.300
Take me a few days,
but I go find you something special.
212
00:23:59.500 --> 00:24:02.300
All right. You hear
they took Marampa yesterday?
213
00:24:03.500 --> 00:24:05.000
- Really?
- Now, come on.
214
00:24:05.200 --> 00:24:07.800
You know every move they make.
When are they gonna hit us?
215
00:24:08.000 --> 00:24:12.500
Oh, I imagine they come
do some shopping very soon.
216
00:24:12.600 --> 00:24:15.900
Yeah, yeah.
Got any smokes back there?
217
00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:17.600
Yeah.
218
00:24:26.700 --> 00:24:28.500
Who's that, huh?
219
00:24:29.800 --> 00:24:31.300
All right.
220
00:24:37.900 --> 00:24:41.500
- Can I offer you a cigarette?
- Oh, no, thanks.
221
00:24:41.800 --> 00:24:43.400
You listening to this?
222
00:24:43.600 --> 00:24:46.000
I am profoundly sorry.
223
00:24:46.200 --> 00:24:49.700
The world is falling apart,
and all we hear about is Blowjobgate.
224
00:24:50.600 --> 00:24:51.800
I believe he's sorry.
225
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:55.400
When was the last time the world
wasn't falling apart, huh?
226
00:24:57.500 --> 00:25:01.300
A cynic. Why don't you sit down
and make me miserable?
227
00:25:03.800 --> 00:25:06.000
- Danny Archer.
- Maddy Bowen.
228
00:25:06.200 --> 00:25:08.000
- Pleased to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
229
00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:10.800
- American, huh?
- Guilty.
230
00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:13.200
Well, Americans usually are.
231
00:25:13.700 --> 00:25:16.100
Says the white South African?
232
00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:19.100
I'm from Rhodesia.
233
00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:23.500
We say Zimbabwe now,
don't we?
234
00:25:23.700 --> 00:25:26.900
- Do we?
- Last time I checked.
235
00:25:27.100 --> 00:25:29.300
Don't tell me,
you're here to make a difference.
236
00:25:29.400 --> 00:25:32.700
- And you're here to make a buck?
- I'm here for lack of a better idea.
237
00:25:33.500 --> 00:25:35.300
- That's a shame.
- Not really.
238
00:25:35.500 --> 00:25:37.700
Peace Corps types only
stay around long enough...
239
00:25:37.900 --> 00:25:39.800
...to realize they're not helping anyone.
240
00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:41.800
Government only wants
to stay in power...
241
00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:44.900
...until they've stolen enough
to go into exile somewhere else.
242
00:25:45.100 --> 00:25:47.700
And the rebels, they're not sure
they want to take over.
243
00:25:47.900 --> 00:25:50.200
Otherwise,
they'd have to govern this mess.
244
00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:52.700
- But TIA, right, M'Ed?
- TIA.
245
00:25:52.900 --> 00:25:54.100
What's TIA?
246
00:25:54.700 --> 00:25:58.600
- "This is Africa," huh?
- Right.
247
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:01.700
- You want another?
- Sure.
248
00:26:05.500 --> 00:26:08.000
So which one are you?
249
00:26:09.500 --> 00:26:12.700
- Smuggler?
- Am I?
250
00:26:12.900 --> 00:26:15.800
Somehow you don't strike me
as the UNICEF type.
251
00:26:16.900 --> 00:26:18.800
How about soldier of fortune?
252
00:26:19.300 --> 00:26:21.900
Or is that too much of a cliché?
253
00:26:22.000 --> 00:26:23.400
Diamonds?
254
00:26:24.100 --> 00:26:27.700
- If I told you I was a missionary...?
- For Van De Kaap?
255
00:26:29.400 --> 00:26:32.000
Better watch that type of talk,
Miss Bowen.
256
00:26:32.200 --> 00:26:35.300
In America, it's bling-bling,
but out here, it's bling-bang, huh?
257
00:26:35.500 --> 00:26:38.700
I wouldn't want you
getting in any trouble.
258
00:26:39.900 --> 00:26:42.200
How much trouble
do you think I would get into...
259
00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:45.600
...for talking about blood diamonds?
260
00:26:48.400 --> 00:26:51.500
- You're a journalist.
- That's right.
261
00:26:55.400 --> 00:26:57.000
Piss off, huh?
262
00:27:01.400 --> 00:27:04.700
For five years, this country has reported
almost no diamond exports...
263
00:27:04.800 --> 00:27:08.500
...while Liberia, right next door,
has exported 2 billion dollars' worth.
264
00:27:08.700 --> 00:27:11.700
Very odd, considering that Liberia
has no diamonds to speak of.
265
00:27:11.900 --> 00:27:12.900
I'm shocked.
266
00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:16.400
Van De Kaap denies trading blood
diamonds, but admits it's impossible...
267
00:27:16.500 --> 00:27:20.900
...to tell where a diamond comes from
unless their smuggler gets caught.
268
00:27:21.000 --> 00:27:22.700
What do you want from me, huh?
269
00:27:22.900 --> 00:27:27.400
You know all about Van De Kaap.
Help me out. Off the record.
270
00:27:27.700 --> 00:27:32.100
Well, off the record, I like to get kissed
before I get fucked, huh?
271
00:27:34.700 --> 00:27:35.900
Shit.
272
00:28:09.300 --> 00:28:12.700
- Cordell. How is it, Shona?
- Long time, pal.
273
00:28:12.900 --> 00:28:16.300
- How's Alice?
- She's well, thanks.
274
00:28:16.500 --> 00:28:18.300
Tim must be in school, right?
275
00:28:18.500 --> 00:28:20.800
- Big kids, big problems, you know?
- Yeah, yeah.
276
00:28:21.000 --> 00:28:23.600
I heard you got into a spot of trouble
in the bush, huh?
277
00:28:23.700 --> 00:28:26.100
Well, you know the bush, right, bru?
278
00:28:26.900 --> 00:28:29.500
- Company doing well?
- Can't complain.
279
00:28:29.600 --> 00:28:32.300
Eleven wars in the continent.
We're keeping busy.
280
00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:34.900
So, what, you're here on holiday, huh?
281
00:28:36.600 --> 00:28:38.500
- How's the colonel?
- He sends his regards.
282
00:28:38.700 --> 00:28:42.300
Good, good. Score us a loose, huh?
283
00:28:43.500 --> 00:28:45.700
Smoking will kill you, bru.
284
00:28:45.900 --> 00:28:47.200
Only if I live, right?
285
00:28:52.500 --> 00:28:54.400
That's for breaking my TV, bru.
286
00:28:59.300 --> 00:29:02.800
Tell the colonel he'll get his money.
I'll come see him soon.
287
00:29:09.500 --> 00:29:10.800
Ten more.
288
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:13.900
Come. Come.
289
00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:21.500
Go on.
290
00:29:35.600 --> 00:29:39.600
Dia. Dia. Come here.
Get away from there.
291
00:29:40.200 --> 00:29:42.800
Go. Go, Mama.
292
00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:45.000
Stay down.
293
00:30:03.100 --> 00:30:04.700
Excuse me,
my name's Solomon Vandy--
294
00:30:04.900 --> 00:30:07.000
- Check the list.
- I have checked the list.
295
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:11.600
- File papers at the Office for Refugees.
- Sir, I have filed papers with the office.
296
00:30:11.800 --> 00:30:13.800
Then God help you,
because I can't.
297
00:30:14.000 --> 00:30:15.000
- Please, sir--
- Next.
298
00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:17.300
- Sir-- Sir, no, please.
- Hey, hey. Me, me, me.
299
00:30:17.500 --> 00:30:21.300
Husband here. One year we look.
300
00:30:25.800 --> 00:30:28.000
Hurry, Mom. Go.
301
00:30:33.100 --> 00:30:34.500
Dia! Dia!
302
00:30:34.700 --> 00:30:35.700
- Jassie!
- Dia!
303
00:30:35.800 --> 00:30:37.400
- Mama!
- Dia!
304
00:30:37.600 --> 00:30:39.800
Jassie! Mama!
305
00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:04.900
He's been waiting.
What took you?
306
00:31:05.600 --> 00:31:08.900
What are you gonna do,
shoot me right here, huh, Shona?
307
00:31:09.100 --> 00:31:12.200
Now, don't be a wanker, man. Get in.
308
00:31:44.300 --> 00:31:46.700
- Hello, Danny.
- Colonel.
309
00:31:46.800 --> 00:31:48.600
You look well.
310
00:31:48.800 --> 00:31:52.000
Clean living and a pure heart,
I suppose, huh?
311
00:31:52.300 --> 00:31:54.000
Walk with me.
312
00:31:55.800 --> 00:31:58.600
It seems the rebels have taken back
the diamond fields, Danny.
313
00:31:58.800 --> 00:32:01.100
The government
of Sierra Leone has contracted us...
314
00:32:01.300 --> 00:32:03.300
...to go in there
and take the rebels down.
315
00:32:03.400 --> 00:32:05.000
So you sell the rebels weapons...
316
00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:07.900
...the government hires you
when they use them? Nice, sir.
317
00:32:08.300 --> 00:32:11.200
I assume you're asking
for mining concessions, huh?
318
00:32:11.400 --> 00:32:14.500
We save the government,
they show their gratitude.
319
00:32:14.700 --> 00:32:17.000
And you get rich, right?
320
00:32:21.300 --> 00:32:22.800
How long have I known you, Danny?
321
00:32:23.300 --> 00:32:26.400
I was... I was 19, sir.
322
00:32:26.700 --> 00:32:31.200
And you survived.
A lot of boys didn't. Why is that?
323
00:32:32.600 --> 00:32:35.300
Just lucky, I guess.
324
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:42.100
No, you were a good soldier.
But I made you better, didn't I?
325
00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:46.900
Yes, sir. Yes, you did.
326
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:50.100
And over the years,
didn't I protect you...
327
00:32:50.500 --> 00:32:54.400
...teach you about diamonds,
cut you in on the deals?
328
00:32:54.600 --> 00:32:58.300
- Some might call it that, yeah.
- But not you...
329
00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:02.900
...because you done with me now, eh?
On to bigger things.
330
00:33:06.100 --> 00:33:08.500
I need a man that knows
his way around up there.
331
00:33:08.700 --> 00:33:12.500
Unless, of course,
you wanna cut me in. Something pink?
332
00:33:13.500 --> 00:33:15.100
Sir...
333
00:33:15.200 --> 00:33:17.400
Our deal went bad,
and you owe me money.
334
00:33:17.500 --> 00:33:19.300
I'll take a stone as payment.
335
00:33:19.400 --> 00:33:23.300
Look, do you think if I found a stone
like that, I'd still be on this continent?
336
00:33:23.500 --> 00:33:27.300
- Come on.
- Danny, give me your hand.
337
00:33:30.300 --> 00:33:34.000
That's red earth. It's in our skin.
338
00:33:34.500 --> 00:33:36.900
The Shona say the color
comes from all the blood...
339
00:33:37.100 --> 00:33:39.600
...that's being spilled
fighting over the land.
340
00:33:41.700 --> 00:33:46.300
This is home.
You'll never leave Africa.
341
00:33:49.000 --> 00:33:51.700
If you say so, sir.
342
00:34:07.200 --> 00:34:10.800
So, what did you do, bury it?
343
00:34:12.100 --> 00:34:15.600
Yeah. Yeah, I would have
buried it, huh?
344
00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:19.800
- What are you talking about?
- What am I talking about? Come on, bru.
345
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:21.400
I'm late for work.
346
00:34:21.600 --> 00:34:24.100
Pink, huh? The biggest one
he'd ever seen.
347
00:34:24.300 --> 00:34:26.400
You were in the mining camps,
weren't you, bru?
348
00:34:26.600 --> 00:34:30.100
Why else would that rebel with
the bandaged arm make up such a story?
349
00:34:30.300 --> 00:34:32.500
Go ask him.
350
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:48.000
Thank you.
351
00:34:57.700 --> 00:35:00.500
Your mothers and fathers,
your brothers and sisters are dead.
352
00:35:00.700 --> 00:35:02.500
- You are dead! You have been reborn.
- No!
353
00:35:02.700 --> 00:35:05.900
- We are your family now.
- No! No!
354
00:35:13.800 --> 00:35:16.100
Your parents are weak.
355
00:35:16.700 --> 00:35:21.200
They're the farmers.
They're the fishermen.
356
00:35:21.700 --> 00:35:25.200
They've done nothing
but suck the blood from this country.
357
00:35:26.600 --> 00:35:31.100
But you are the heroes
who will save this nation.
358
00:35:31.300 --> 00:35:33.300
You are not children anymore.
359
00:35:34.300 --> 00:35:36.200
You're men.
360
00:35:38.400 --> 00:35:41.600
No one has ever given you respect...
361
00:35:41.800 --> 00:35:44.900
...but with this in your hand,
they go fear you.
362
00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:47.500
If you do not get
the respect you deserve...
363
00:35:47.700 --> 00:35:50.000
...you will take it
by shedding their blood.
364
00:35:50.200 --> 00:35:54.100
- Repeat after me, shed their blood.
- Shed their blood.
365
00:35:54.300 --> 00:35:57.400
- Louder! Shed their blood! Shed their blood!
- Shed their blood!
366
00:35:57.600 --> 00:36:00.700
Make them hear you in Freetown.
Shed their blood! Shed their blood!
367
00:36:00.900 --> 00:36:03.400
Shed their blood! Shed their blood!
Shed their blood!
368
00:36:03.600 --> 00:36:06.500
- Dia Vandy, stand up.
- Shed their blood! Shed their blood!
369
00:36:06.700 --> 00:36:09.600
- Shed their blood! Shed their blood!
- Put your hand on the gun.
370
00:36:09.700 --> 00:36:11.300
Shed their blood!
Shed their blood!
371
00:36:11.500 --> 00:36:13.100
Shed their blood!
Shed their blood!
372
00:36:13.300 --> 00:36:16.300
- Shed their blood! Shed their blood!
- Now squeeze the trigger.
373
00:36:16.800 --> 00:36:21.200
Come on, Dia. Pull the trigger.
Pull the trigger!
374
00:36:55.400 --> 00:36:59.900
I know, I know.
It's hard to be a man.
375
00:37:00.700 --> 00:37:03.200
Sit up. Come.
376
00:37:03.400 --> 00:37:07.700
But you are a soldier
of the revolution now.
377
00:37:07.900 --> 00:37:10.800
And I am your commander.
378
00:37:11.300 --> 00:37:13.100
Whatever you need...
379
00:37:13.300 --> 00:37:16.500
...guns, CDs, food...
380
00:37:16.700 --> 00:37:20.400
...come to me.
I will take care of you.
381
00:37:23.700 --> 00:37:30.100
Today, you are promoted
to the rank of captain.
382
00:37:34.700 --> 00:37:36.700
Dia Vandy...
383
00:37:38.300 --> 00:37:40.100
...boss man.
384
00:37:57.900 --> 00:37:59.500
How's it, bru?
385
00:38:00.000 --> 00:38:03.200
- You got something for me, huh?
- Yeah.
386
00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:07.400
- So, what's new, M'Ed?
- Fucking RUF.
387
00:38:07.600 --> 00:38:10.100
Tried to hit the government building
across the street.
388
00:38:10.300 --> 00:38:14.900
Shit, man, half the people
be soldiers today, RUF tomorrow.
389
00:38:15.100 --> 00:38:18.500
- Might be time to get your family out, huh?
- And go where?
390
00:38:18.700 --> 00:38:22.400
Just fire up the chopper
and fly away like you people?
391
00:38:22.800 --> 00:38:24.600
This my country, man.
392
00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:28.200
We here long before you came,
long after you gone.
393
00:38:37.300 --> 00:38:40.400
- Hi. I'm Maddy Bowen.
- How about you dance with me?
394
00:38:40.600 --> 00:38:44.000
- No, I don't dance.
- Neither do I. Come on.
395
00:38:49.200 --> 00:38:51.600
- So, Danny...
- Archer.
396
00:38:51.900 --> 00:38:52.900
Archer.
397
00:38:53.900 --> 00:38:57.500
When did you first start
moving stones? Was it Angola?
398
00:38:59.300 --> 00:39:03.900
Then you did the whole
mercenary thing. Was that fun?
399
00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:09.100
So, what are you?
Nihilist? Opportunist?
400
00:39:09.300 --> 00:39:11.400
Maybe I wasn't breast-fed
as a child, huh?
401
00:39:13.600 --> 00:39:16.000
You think I haven't met
people like you before?
402
00:39:16.200 --> 00:39:19.500
- I think you get off on people like me.
- You think?
403
00:39:22.300 --> 00:39:24.800
When did you first start
working for Van De Kaap?
404
00:39:25.400 --> 00:39:27.000
Christ, you never stop, do you?
405
00:39:28.300 --> 00:39:31.600
No, I never stop.
406
00:39:32.300 --> 00:39:33.900
Do you want me to stop?
407
00:39:35.300 --> 00:39:39.200
Why don't we go back to your place,
see what's in the minibar, huh?
408
00:39:39.400 --> 00:39:41.500
I'm a print journalist. I drank it.
409
00:39:42.700 --> 00:39:45.500
Is it possible that you don't care
how many people die...
410
00:39:45.700 --> 00:39:47.600
...because of the deals you do?
411
00:39:47.700 --> 00:39:51.000
People here kill each other as a way of life.
Always been like that.
412
00:39:51.200 --> 00:39:54.100
So you can just watch it
and go about your day?
413
00:39:55.400 --> 00:39:57.500
Maybe we should all just
write about it, then.
414
00:39:57.600 --> 00:40:00.000
Look, thanks for the dance, huh?
415
00:40:02.200 --> 00:40:05.500
- And a shot too, huh, M'Ed?
- Sure.
416
00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:10.700
You're a hard case, huh?
417
00:40:10.800 --> 00:40:13.800
Tell me something,
how long you been here in Africa, huh?
418
00:40:14.000 --> 00:40:17.300
Three months. And before that,
Afghanistan and Bosnia.
419
00:40:17.700 --> 00:40:19.700
You come here
with your laptop computer...
420
00:40:19.900 --> 00:40:23.900
...and your malaria medicine
and your little bottles of hand sanitizer.
421
00:40:24.600 --> 00:40:27.700
Think you're gonna change
the outcome, huh?
422
00:40:27.800 --> 00:40:30.400
Let me tell you something.
You sell blood diamonds too.
423
00:40:30.600 --> 00:40:32.100
- Really?
- Yeah.
424
00:40:32.300 --> 00:40:33.300
Tell me, how is that?
425
00:40:33.400 --> 00:40:35.700
Who do you think buys
the stones that I bring out?
426
00:40:35.900 --> 00:40:39.500
Dreamy American girls who all want
a storybook wedding and a big, shiny rock...
427
00:40:39.700 --> 00:40:43.200
...like the ones in the advertisements
of your politically-correct magazines.
428
00:40:43.400 --> 00:40:46.400
So, please, don't come here
and make judgments on me, all right?
429
00:40:47.800 --> 00:40:52.100
I provide a service. The world wants what
we have, and they want it cheap.
430
00:40:52.300 --> 00:40:55.500
We're in business together.
Get over yourself, darling.
431
00:40:56.000 --> 00:41:00.100
Okay, just to clarify, not all American girls
want a storybook wedding...
432
00:41:00.300 --> 00:41:03.200
...just like not all Africans kill each other
as a way of life.
433
00:41:03.300 --> 00:41:05.700
And yeah, it's a shit, shit world,
but you know what?
434
00:41:05.900 --> 00:41:09.800
Good things are done every day,
just, apparently, not by you.
435
00:41:11.400 --> 00:41:14.400
This place is about to explode.
436
00:41:14.700 --> 00:41:16.700
I wanna spend my time
with someone else.
437
00:41:27.800 --> 00:41:30.800
You are listening to BBC World Service.
438
00:41:31.000 --> 00:41:34.700
In Sierra Leone, Revolutionary United Front
forces have been sighted...
439
00:41:34.900 --> 00:41:37.600
...within 10 kilometers
of the capital city of Freetown.
440
00:41:37.800 --> 00:41:40.500
The minister of the interior
has expressed confidence...
441
00:41:40.600 --> 00:41:43.000
...that the government troops
can repel the attack.
442
00:41:43.200 --> 00:41:46.400
All foreign nationals are being advised
to leave the country.
443
00:41:46.600 --> 00:41:48.800
There are also unconfirmed reports...
444
00:41:48.900 --> 00:41:53.000
...that atrocities are being committed by
both sides in the rapidly worsening situation.
445
00:41:53.200 --> 00:41:57.100
The United Nations has described
the refugee situation as critical.
446
00:42:08.700 --> 00:42:11.100
Don't tell me you're gonna try
and sell it yourself.
447
00:42:11.300 --> 00:42:13.800
To who?
And for what price, my friend?
448
00:42:14.000 --> 00:42:16.000
You need my help,
whether you like it or not.
449
00:42:16.200 --> 00:42:19.200
- What are you talking about?
- Here, let me help you with that.
450
00:42:19.400 --> 00:42:23.300
You hear that? You hear that?
They came into the city overnight.
451
00:42:23.400 --> 00:42:25.700
It's started.
What are you gonna do now, huh?
452
00:42:25.900 --> 00:42:30.200
Listen, the right stone can buy anything.
Information, safety, even freedom.
453
00:42:30.400 --> 00:42:32.800
But a big stone does not stay secret
for very long.
454
00:42:33.000 --> 00:42:36.300
The moment you tell anyone about it,
your life is absolutely worthless.
455
00:42:36.400 --> 00:42:39.600
The only reason you're alive is
you haven't told anyone where it is.
456
00:42:39.700 --> 00:42:41.000
Am I right? Am I?
457
00:42:41.400 --> 00:42:43.400
Who do you think got you
out of jail, huh?
458
00:42:43.600 --> 00:42:46.700
- That makes us partners.
- I am not your partner!
459
00:42:46.800 --> 00:42:49.300
What if I helped you find your family?
460
00:42:49.500 --> 00:42:51.000
What do you know of my family?
461
00:42:51.200 --> 00:42:54.200
The relief agencies are useless,
the hospitals are overwhelmed.
462
00:42:54.400 --> 00:42:57.000
- There are other ways, bru.
- Liar.
463
00:42:57.200 --> 00:43:00.400
Look at me. I know people, huh?
White people.
464
00:43:00.600 --> 00:43:03.700
Without me, you're just another
black man in Africa, all right?
465
00:43:07.100 --> 00:43:08.800
Oh, shit.
466
00:43:10.600 --> 00:43:12.100
We got no time.
What's it gonna be?
467
00:43:12.300 --> 00:43:14.300
You would say anything.
How can I trust you?
468
00:43:14.500 --> 00:43:17.900
I don't give a fuck about you, all right?
That diamond could be priceless!
469
00:43:18.100 --> 00:43:22.300
We split it, and you get your family.
What's it gonna be, yes or no? Yes or no?
470
00:43:22.500 --> 00:43:25.100
- Where will we go? Where do we go?
- Come on, follow me!
471
00:43:56.500 --> 00:43:58.200
Stay low!
472
00:44:00.000 --> 00:44:01.300
Get your ass over here!
473
00:44:12.300 --> 00:44:13.400
Wait!
474
00:44:13.800 --> 00:44:15.500
Now!
475
00:44:20.600 --> 00:44:22.200
Come on, come on.
476
00:44:26.200 --> 00:44:27.600
Come on!
477
00:44:43.800 --> 00:44:45.400
Come on.
478
00:44:45.600 --> 00:44:46.800
Fuck!
479
00:44:56.100 --> 00:44:57.900
No, this way.
480
00:44:58.300 --> 00:44:59.800
Fire!
481
00:45:15.900 --> 00:45:17.400
Fuck! Go, go, go!
482
00:45:17.700 --> 00:45:19.300
Go!
483
00:45:29.300 --> 00:45:31.100
Shit!
484
00:45:31.300 --> 00:45:32.900
No! No!
485
00:45:41.400 --> 00:45:43.100
This way.
486
00:46:03.000 --> 00:46:05.200
This way. Stay low.
487
00:46:16.600 --> 00:46:18.300
Come on. Go, go, go. Come on.
488
00:46:25.300 --> 00:46:27.100
Come on!
489
00:46:32.500 --> 00:46:35.000
It's okay. It's okay, it's okay.
490
00:47:00.700 --> 00:47:02.800
Fire!
491
00:48:44.700 --> 00:48:48.400
- Is there another way?
- That bridge is the only way across, huh?
492
00:48:48.600 --> 00:48:50.800
So, what do we do?
493
00:49:01.600 --> 00:49:06.300
- You are RUF, huh? And I am your prisoner.
- What do you mean?
494
00:49:06.500 --> 00:49:09.600
You wanna see your son again, don't you?
You stay behind me.
495
00:49:10.300 --> 00:49:11.900
Wait, wait. Wait.
496
00:49:14.900 --> 00:49:17.600
Bring that pink chicken skin
over here, huh?
497
00:49:17.800 --> 00:49:20.200
Now let me shoot that pink ass, boy.
498
00:49:55.900 --> 00:49:57.800
Where are we going?
499
00:49:58.600 --> 00:50:01.200
Lungi's under government control.
500
00:50:01.300 --> 00:50:05.800
I'm gonna try to locate a sat phone
to get in contact with my pilot, all right?
501
00:50:06.000 --> 00:50:08.300
I have agreed to nothing.
502
00:50:09.200 --> 00:50:11.700
You're in a bit of a conundrum there,
my friend.
503
00:50:11.900 --> 00:50:16.100
You know what that means?
It means you have no choice.
504
00:50:30.000 --> 00:50:33.200
So you're a fisherman, huh?
505
00:50:33.400 --> 00:50:37.200
- What do you catch mostly?
- Fish.
506
00:50:45.600 --> 00:50:47.000
Come on.
507
00:50:59.200 --> 00:51:00.700
- Hello.
- Back away from the fence.
508
00:51:00.900 --> 00:51:03.500
Listen, I'm from
the Cape Herald, all right?
509
00:51:03.700 --> 00:51:06.600
My wallet, my credentials,
everything got left in Freetown.
510
00:51:06.800 --> 00:51:09.500
We barely got out with our lives.
Can we just get through?
511
00:51:09.600 --> 00:51:12.700
Back away from the fence.
512
00:51:16.600 --> 00:51:18.300
But you are not a journalist.
513
00:51:18.500 --> 00:51:19.900
I'm trying to get us to Kono.
514
00:51:20.100 --> 00:51:22.500
- Do you understand that, huh?
- Getting B-roll. Wait.
515
00:51:22.600 --> 00:51:25.200
Listen, I'm coming back.
I'm coming back just now.
516
00:51:25.400 --> 00:51:28.400
How's it, my bru?
Have you got an extra smoke?
517
00:51:28.600 --> 00:51:30.300
- Here.
- Oh, cheers.
518
00:51:30.500 --> 00:51:33.500
I'm looking for someone, an American
by the name of Maddy Bowen.
519
00:51:33.700 --> 00:51:36.500
- If you saw her, you would not forget it.
- Yeah, I know her.
520
00:51:36.700 --> 00:51:37.700
- Is it?
- Yeah.
521
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:41.400
Can you tell her Danny Archer's looking
for her? I've got the story she wants.
522
00:51:41.600 --> 00:51:44.800
Okay, but I'm going out for a bit.
If I see her before, I'll tell her.
523
00:51:45.000 --> 00:51:47.200
Magic. Listen, we'll be
right down the road, huh?
524
00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:50.200
- Sweet. Cheers, bru.
- Cheers.
525
00:51:51.600 --> 00:51:55.000
It is as I said.
You will say anything.
526
00:52:01.600 --> 00:52:03.200
- You don't mind waiting?
- No worries.
527
00:52:03.400 --> 00:52:07.300
- Thank you so much. I'll just be a sec.
- All right, Maddy.
528
00:52:10.600 --> 00:52:12.000
Hi.
529
00:52:12.200 --> 00:52:14.000
You got out.
530
00:52:14.100 --> 00:52:17.200
Yes. Hello again.
531
00:52:17.400 --> 00:52:19.700
- This is Solomon Vandy.
- Hi.
532
00:52:19.900 --> 00:52:21.400
- Hello.
- Nice to meet you.
533
00:52:21.700 --> 00:52:25.100
So I'm on deadline. I've been waiting
four hours to use the phone.
534
00:52:25.300 --> 00:52:29.600
- I've got someone holding my place in line.
- I understand. Come with me, huh?
535
00:52:30.200 --> 00:52:32.300
All right. Here it is.
536
00:52:32.500 --> 00:52:35.500
- There's a company called Tiara Diamonds.
- Right?
537
00:52:35.600 --> 00:52:37.900
They get the stones
that I smuggle into Liberia.
538
00:52:38.100 --> 00:52:40.500
Now, Van De Kaap
has no visible ties to Tiara...
539
00:52:40.600 --> 00:52:43.900
...but through a series of cross holdings
and offshore bank accounts...
540
00:52:44.100 --> 00:52:46.200
- ...they actually own it.
- You can prove this?
541
00:52:47.600 --> 00:52:51.100
- If you help me out, yeah.
- Right, here it comes.
542
00:52:51.300 --> 00:52:53.800
Before you say anything,
look at that man. You see him?
543
00:52:54.200 --> 00:52:58.800
His entire village was burned down.
His wife and children, they got away.
544
00:52:59.000 --> 00:53:02.200
He's been working in the mining camps,
trying to get his family back.
545
00:53:02.400 --> 00:53:04.000
He cannot get through the red tape.
546
00:53:04.100 --> 00:53:06.900
All I'm asking is this,
that you help him, huh?
547
00:53:07.100 --> 00:53:09.100
And how do you know this man?
548
00:53:09.800 --> 00:53:13.600
- I know him. I know him.
- Oh, come on, Archer.
549
00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:15.600
You're using him.
550
00:53:17.200 --> 00:53:21.400
I'm using him, and you are using me,
and this is how it works, isn't it?
551
00:53:21.600 --> 00:53:24.400
Come on. Look, you've got access
to U.N. databases.
552
00:53:24.500 --> 00:53:26.400
- You can track his family for him.
- Why?
553
00:53:26.600 --> 00:53:29.800
This whole country's at war.
Why should I help just one person?
554
00:53:35.400 --> 00:53:37.400
I can't believe I just said that.
555
00:53:40.600 --> 00:53:43.200
My family's here, in Guinea?
556
00:53:43.400 --> 00:53:45.700
Yes, according to the manifest.
557
00:53:46.700 --> 00:53:48.400
I do not know how to thank you.
558
00:54:14.400 --> 00:54:17.100
Thank you. Thank you.
559
00:54:31.500 --> 00:54:33.800
This is what a million people looks like.
560
00:54:37.200 --> 00:54:41.100
At the moment, the second largest
refugee camp in Africa.
561
00:54:41.600 --> 00:54:47.300
Might catch a minute of this on CNN,
somewhere between Sports and Weather.
562
00:54:56.800 --> 00:54:58.200
- Hello.
- Yeah, hello?
563
00:54:58.300 --> 00:55:00.700
I've spoken with Colonel Coedoo...
564
00:55:01.100 --> 00:55:04.000
...and highlighted the names
we're looking for.
565
00:55:04.200 --> 00:55:05.400
- Move away.
- What him doing?
566
00:55:05.500 --> 00:55:06.900
Okay, I'm gonna check for you.
567
00:55:07.100 --> 00:55:09.600
- Wait me there.
- Okay, thank you.
568
00:55:09.900 --> 00:55:11.000
We are here to help you.
569
00:55:11.200 --> 00:55:13.500
This woman says she has
spoken to Coedoo.
570
00:55:13.600 --> 00:55:17.400
An entire country made homeless.
571
00:55:20.300 --> 00:55:23.700
Two multiplied by three
is equal to six.
572
00:55:23.900 --> 00:55:27.400
Two multiplied by four
is equal to eight.
573
00:55:27.600 --> 00:55:30.800
Two multiplied by five
is equal to 10.
574
00:55:31.000 --> 00:55:34.100
Two multiplied by six
is equal to 12.
575
00:56:12.100 --> 00:56:13.300
Jassie.
576
00:56:14.400 --> 00:56:15.900
Jassie!
577
00:56:16.700 --> 00:56:18.400
Jassie!
578
00:56:18.600 --> 00:56:19.700
- Jassie.
- Solo.
579
00:56:19.900 --> 00:56:21.100
- Jassie.
- Solo.
580
00:56:21.300 --> 00:56:23.700
Jassie. Jassie.
581
00:56:25.800 --> 00:56:27.500
- Solomon.
- Jassie.
582
00:56:36.300 --> 00:56:37.600
- Solomon.
- Jassie.
583
00:56:39.300 --> 00:56:41.100
Dia. Dia.
584
00:56:42.100 --> 00:56:43.300
Where is Dia?
585
00:56:47.100 --> 00:56:48.300
Jassie!
586
00:56:59.000 --> 00:57:01.200
They took him.
587
00:57:05.600 --> 00:57:07.600
There are only two children
on the manifest.
588
00:57:07.800 --> 00:57:10.300
- Where is my son?
- Oh, Christ.
589
00:57:10.600 --> 00:57:12.500
Where is my son?
590
00:57:12.600 --> 00:57:14.400
- Away from the fence.
- Where is my son?
591
00:57:14.600 --> 00:57:15.800
Move away from the fence.
592
00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:19.100
- Let them out! Let them out!
- Keep away from the fence.
593
00:57:20.500 --> 00:57:21.700
Let them out!
594
00:57:25.200 --> 00:57:26.200
Away from the fence.
595
00:57:28.100 --> 00:57:29.900
- They'll shoot you!
- Jassie!
596
00:57:30.100 --> 00:57:32.500
No! Solo!
597
00:57:32.700 --> 00:57:34.900
Do you want your wife and child
to watch you die?
598
00:57:35.700 --> 00:57:38.500
Solo! Solo!
599
00:57:47.900 --> 00:57:52.500
They said they're concerned that
some of the refugees might be rebels...
600
00:57:53.000 --> 00:57:56.700
...so they refused to release them
until there's a cease-fire.
601
00:57:58.100 --> 00:58:00.900
I'm so sorry, Solomon.
602
00:58:01.300 --> 00:58:03.900
What you want, Mr. Archer,
is beyond those hills...
603
00:58:04.100 --> 00:58:06.300
...where I buried it.
604
00:58:29.500 --> 00:58:34.400
You say the mine is on the Sewa River.
Where exactly?
605
00:58:35.600 --> 00:58:37.100
Solomon.
606
00:58:38.100 --> 00:58:40.000
I do not need a map.
607
00:58:40.200 --> 00:58:44.600
Yeah, well, I do.
Look, we are down here, huh?
608
00:58:44.700 --> 00:58:46.500
The press convoy
is on its way to Kono.
609
00:58:46.700 --> 00:58:50.000
You say the diamond mine is up here.
Where did you bury it?
610
00:58:53.300 --> 00:58:56.500
When we get to Kono,
we're gonna have to walk, all right?
611
00:58:56.700 --> 00:58:59.400
You damn well better be able to find it.
612
00:59:01.400 --> 00:59:05.600
My son is a very good student.
613
00:59:06.800 --> 00:59:09.400
He walks five kilometers
to the Sister School...
614
00:59:09.600 --> 00:59:12.900
...every morning to study English.
615
00:59:14.800 --> 00:59:17.800
He's going to be a doctor one day.
616
00:59:42.100 --> 00:59:46.000
"In the 90-degree heat,
Solomon Vandy drops to his knees...
617
00:59:46.200 --> 00:59:49.900
...rattling the wire
with his powerful hands."
618
00:59:53.400 --> 00:59:56.200
- What?
- Nothing.
619
00:59:58.300 --> 01:00:00.300
Do you think I'm exploiting his grief?
620
01:00:02.300 --> 01:00:04.100
You're right. It's shit.
621
01:00:04.800 --> 01:00:07.600
It's like one of those infomercials.
622
01:00:07.700 --> 01:00:12.600
You know, the little black babies
with swollen bellies and flies in their eyes.
623
01:00:12.700 --> 01:00:16.600
So here I've got dead mothers,
I've got severed limbs, but it's nothing new.
624
01:00:16.800 --> 01:00:19.400
It might be enough
to make people cry if they read it...
625
01:00:19.600 --> 01:00:21.100
...maybe even write a check...
626
01:00:21.200 --> 01:00:23.600
...but it's not gonna be enough
to make it stop.
627
01:00:23.900 --> 01:00:28.500
I am sick of writing about victims,
but it's all I can fucking do.
628
01:00:28.600 --> 01:00:30.200
Because I need facts.
629
01:00:30.300 --> 01:00:34.900
I need names. I need dates.
I need pictures. I need bank accounts.
630
01:00:36.900 --> 01:00:39.400
People back home
wouldn't buy a ring...
631
01:00:39.600 --> 01:00:41.900
...if they knew it cost
someone else their hand.
632
01:00:42.500 --> 01:00:44.700
But I can't write that story...
633
01:00:44.800 --> 01:00:48.400
...until I get facts
that can be verified...
634
01:00:48.500 --> 01:00:53.700
...which is to say, until I find someone
who will go on record.
635
01:00:54.900 --> 01:00:56.400
So if that is not you...
636
01:00:56.600 --> 01:01:00.700
...and you're not really gonna help me,
and we're not really gonna screw...
637
01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:04.100
...then why don't you get the fuck
out of my face...
638
01:01:04.200 --> 01:01:06.100
...and let me do my work?
639
01:01:14.300 --> 01:01:18.200
Do you know that Solomon thinks
his son's gonna be a doctor one day?
640
01:01:21.000 --> 01:01:24.100
Maybe his baby dies in that camp.
Maybe his daughter gets raped.
641
01:01:24.500 --> 01:01:26.600
Who knows, maybe both.
642
01:01:28.700 --> 01:01:30.500
Do you realize that
that diamond...
643
01:01:30.700 --> 01:01:33.400
...is the only chance he has
of getting his family out?
644
01:01:33.600 --> 01:01:37.800
- You don't give a rat's ass about his family.
- Do you understand that?
645
01:01:43.300 --> 01:01:45.400
Listen, I need to get to Kono, all right?
646
01:01:45.500 --> 01:01:47.600
The only way
is with the press convoy.
647
01:01:47.800 --> 01:01:50.200
I'm a journalist,
and he's my cameraman, all right?
648
01:01:50.300 --> 01:01:51.900
- No.
- Please, Maddy.
649
01:01:52.000 --> 01:01:53.700
- Please.
- No!
650
01:02:07.000 --> 01:02:09.400
After I smuggle the stones
across the border...
651
01:02:10.500 --> 01:02:13.300
...local buyers get them
to a middleman in Monrovia.
652
01:02:17.100 --> 01:02:18.400
Go on.
653
01:02:19.900 --> 01:02:24.800
He pays off Customs and then certifies
that the diamonds were mined in Liberia.
654
01:02:24.900 --> 01:02:27.300
That way, they can be legally exported.
655
01:02:27.900 --> 01:02:31.000
Now, once they've reached
the buyers in Antwerp...
656
01:02:31.100 --> 01:02:33.600
...diamonds are brought
to the sorting tables...
657
01:02:33.800 --> 01:02:35.400
...no more questions are asked.
658
01:02:36.600 --> 01:02:38.400
By the time they get to India...
659
01:02:38.500 --> 01:02:42.300
...the dirty stones are mixed with
the clean stones from all over the world...
660
01:02:42.400 --> 01:02:44.700
...and then they become
like any other diamonds.
661
01:02:44.900 --> 01:02:47.100
And Van De Kaap
knows about all this?
662
01:02:48.700 --> 01:02:49.700
Yeah.
663
01:02:49.900 --> 01:02:52.600
When I get to London,
I meet with Simmons.
664
01:02:53.000 --> 01:02:56.400
Supply and demand. You control the supply,
and you keep the demand high.
665
01:02:56.600 --> 01:02:58.100
- Agreed.
- Good.
666
01:02:58.200 --> 01:03:00.600
Now, there's an underground vault...
667
01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:04.300
...where they put all the stones
they buy up to keep off the market...
668
01:03:04.500 --> 01:03:06.300
...so they can keep the price high.
669
01:03:07.100 --> 01:03:10.500
If rebels wanna flood the market
with a billion dollars' worth of rough...
670
01:03:10.700 --> 01:03:13.700
...a company like Van De Kaap,
who says that they're rare...
671
01:03:13.900 --> 01:03:15.600
...can't afford to let that happen.
672
01:03:15.800 --> 01:03:18.000
Especially when they're telling
some poor sod...
673
01:03:18.200 --> 01:03:20.700
...he's supposed to shell out
three months' salary...
674
01:03:20.900 --> 01:03:22.200
...for an engagement ring.
675
01:03:22.400 --> 01:03:25.400
Now, technically speaking,
they're not financing the war...
676
01:03:25.500 --> 01:03:28.400
...but creating a situation
where it pays to keep it going.
677
01:03:28.500 --> 01:03:31.800
- You understand?
- Yes. And where's my proof?
678
01:03:38.200 --> 01:03:42.400
Names, dates and numbered accounts.
679
01:03:44.500 --> 01:03:47.500
You publish one word of this story
before I give them the stone...
680
01:03:47.700 --> 01:03:49.800
...and I'm dead, huh?
681
01:03:49.900 --> 01:03:54.300
After I give it to them,
then... I leave this continent forever.
682
01:03:56.500 --> 01:03:58.300
If you don't come out
with the diamond?
683
01:03:58.500 --> 01:04:00.900
Then write whatever you want.
684
01:04:01.700 --> 01:04:03.800
I'm already dead.
685
01:04:10.700 --> 01:04:14.300
Now, remember. All you say is,
"I am the cameraman," all right?
686
01:04:14.500 --> 01:04:16.500
Listen, I cannot do this.
687
01:04:16.600 --> 01:04:19.200
- Why not?
- Because I am not a journalist.
688
01:04:19.400 --> 01:04:21.900
- Of course you're not.
- Well, then how can I say I am?
689
01:04:22.100 --> 01:04:25.300
Because you do. Because that's how
you get your son back, all right?
690
01:04:25.500 --> 01:04:27.900
Now get on the bus. Go.
691
01:04:44.500 --> 01:04:47.500
I am the cameraman.
692
01:04:53.400 --> 01:04:55.600
You are writing about
what is happening here?
693
01:04:56.400 --> 01:04:57.400
Yes.
694
01:04:57.500 --> 01:05:01.700
So when people in your country read it,
they will come help us, yes?
695
01:05:02.500 --> 01:05:03.500
Probably not.
696
01:05:05.100 --> 01:05:07.500
- You heard of a Stinger?
- What?
697
01:05:07.700 --> 01:05:12.100
Your friend, Maddy. She's like a full-on,
heat-seeking missile, bru.
698
01:05:12.300 --> 01:05:15.000
I mean, I saw her go into Afghanistan...
699
01:05:15.200 --> 01:05:18.300
...like about 200 clicks
into Taliban land.
700
01:05:18.500 --> 01:05:21.300
When the military said no,
she just took a bus, bru.
701
01:05:21.500 --> 01:05:24.800
Came back with 3000 words,
and she still looked so good.
702
01:05:25.000 --> 01:05:26.800
- Like hot, you know?
- All right.
703
01:05:27.000 --> 01:05:28.700
Calm down to the frantic now, huh?
704
01:05:30.300 --> 01:05:32.200
- What's that?
- What's going on?
705
01:05:33.300 --> 01:05:34.500
Looks like it was an RPG.
706
01:05:34.700 --> 01:05:36.500
Open the door. Let us out.
707
01:05:36.900 --> 01:05:38.800
- Let's go, let's go.
- Come on. Go, go, go.
708
01:05:40.800 --> 01:05:42.200
Go, go! Move, move, move!
709
01:05:43.000 --> 01:05:45.900
We've just happened upon
the sight of an ambush...
710
01:05:47.100 --> 01:05:49.400
...fifteen kilometers
from the Liberian border...
711
01:05:49.600 --> 01:05:52.200
- ...near the Moa River...
- As you can see behind me...
712
01:05:52.400 --> 01:05:53.900
...just a few minutes ago...
713
01:05:54.100 --> 01:05:56.400
- ...an ambulance has...
- Got movement in the bush.
714
01:05:56.600 --> 01:05:58.600
- Check out the head of the road.
- Spread out.
715
01:05:58.800 --> 01:06:00.600
--at this site.
Dozens of--
716
01:06:01.600 --> 01:06:03.500
Many are injured.
717
01:06:13.600 --> 01:06:16.800
Get back on the bus, huh?
Get back on! Come on!
718
01:06:17.000 --> 01:06:18.600
- Maddy!
- Move it! Move it!
719
01:06:18.800 --> 01:06:19.800
Get back on the bus!
720
01:06:19.900 --> 01:06:21.500
Solomon! Solomon!
721
01:06:21.700 --> 01:06:23.200
- Let's go.
- Solomon, come here!
722
01:06:23.300 --> 01:06:24.800
- Go, go, go.
- Come on, come on.
723
01:06:25.000 --> 01:06:27.600
- Get in the bus!
- Move, move, move! Come on, come on.
724
01:06:28.000 --> 01:06:29.800
- Move!
- Get in the bus. Let's go.
725
01:06:30.000 --> 01:06:32.200
Get in, get in.
Goddamn it, get in! Get in!
726
01:06:32.400 --> 01:06:34.800
- Let me inside!
- There's no fucking space!
727
01:06:35.000 --> 01:06:37.200
- Let them on the bus.
- You give him your seat.
728
01:06:37.400 --> 01:06:40.400
What if we just take your place, huh?
What if we take your place?
729
01:06:40.500 --> 01:06:43.500
That's enough. He can ride with me.
Oi, he can ride with me.
730
01:06:43.600 --> 01:06:46.200
Maddy! Let's go!
Maddy, let's go. Come on!
731
01:06:59.100 --> 01:07:02.200
Nothing like a little bang-bang
to get the heart started, Maddy.
732
01:07:03.100 --> 01:07:06.300
- Whatever you say, Corbauld.
- Come on, love. Don't be like that.
733
01:07:06.500 --> 01:07:09.900
Story's played out, hasn't it?
Government bad, rebels worse.
734
01:07:10.500 --> 01:07:12.900
No one gives a toss anymore.
Know what I mean?
735
01:07:48.700 --> 01:07:50.600
This medicine will make you strong...
736
01:07:51.200 --> 01:07:53.600
...make you invisible to your enemies.
737
01:07:53.700 --> 01:07:56.000
Bullets will bounce off you.
738
01:08:06.800 --> 01:08:10.600
Superboy Killer, yes, huh?
Commando.
739
01:08:11.700 --> 01:08:13.700
Foreigners are the cause of the problems.
740
01:08:16.300 --> 01:08:20.100
Poppy Sankoh say,
"Overthrow those who would exploit you."
741
01:08:22.000 --> 01:08:23.500
I am Baby Killer.
742
01:08:27.200 --> 01:08:30.900
- I am the Master of Disaster.
- You will be strong.
743
01:08:34.200 --> 01:08:35.700
I am Born Trouble.
744
01:08:42.100 --> 01:08:44.100
I am See Me No More.
745
01:08:53.700 --> 01:08:56.600
You'd think they'd want
at least one decent road in this place.
746
01:08:58.100 --> 01:09:02.200
I'm gonna have to start charging
an entrance fee. Oh, God!
747
01:09:32.000 --> 01:09:33.200
Get down!
748
01:09:41.400 --> 01:09:43.600
- Look out!
- Shit!
749
01:09:56.100 --> 01:09:57.700
- You all right?
- Fine.
750
01:10:03.300 --> 01:10:04.600
Shit!
751
01:10:07.700 --> 01:10:09.100
Hold on!
752
01:10:19.200 --> 01:10:20.600
Hold on!
753
01:10:31.800 --> 01:10:33.100
Come on.
754
01:10:40.600 --> 01:10:42.800
- Everyone all right, huh?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
755
01:10:43.000 --> 01:10:44.400
Let me see that. You okay?
756
01:10:44.600 --> 01:10:45.700
- Yeah.
- All right.
757
01:10:48.300 --> 01:10:51.300
Quietly, now. Quietly.
758
01:11:12.500 --> 01:11:13.900
Come on.
759
01:11:35.200 --> 01:11:39.300
Kamajors. Local militia
protecting their homes, huh?
760
01:11:39.500 --> 01:11:41.400
- Do not look them in the eye.
- No.
761
01:11:55.900 --> 01:11:57.400
Excuse me. Excuse me?
762
01:11:58.300 --> 01:12:01.700
Hi, I'm Maddy Bowen
with Vital Affairs magazine.
763
01:12:01.800 --> 01:12:04.900
Wonder if I could take your picture.
I'm just gonna get my camera.
764
01:12:05.100 --> 01:12:08.000
I've heard about your struggle.
I'd love to know more about it.
765
01:12:08.200 --> 01:12:10.800
Would you mind if I took your picture?
Everyone together?
766
01:12:11.200 --> 01:12:12.900
Everyone could all come in together.
767
01:12:16.400 --> 01:12:18.400
Is that okay?
If everyone could come closer.
768
01:12:19.500 --> 01:12:22.600
If you come over here and come in
nice and close. That's good.
769
01:12:22.800 --> 01:12:26.200
Yeah. That's great.
And we'll get one with all of us.
770
01:12:26.500 --> 01:12:28.300
There you go. That's perfect.
771
01:12:30.100 --> 01:12:32.600
How about one together?
Us together, what do you think?
772
01:12:32.800 --> 01:12:34.800
I'll come in like this, yeah?
773
01:12:35.600 --> 01:12:36.600
Cheese.
774
01:12:38.700 --> 01:12:41.100
So do you think
they've read your work?
775
01:12:41.200 --> 01:12:43.400
Shut up.
776
01:12:56.300 --> 01:12:58.600
Hey, get them, get them, get them.
777
01:13:00.200 --> 01:13:03.900
- I got a score. I got a score.
- You missed.
778
01:13:04.600 --> 01:13:06.800
Where have you come from?
779
01:13:07.400 --> 01:13:10.100
- Where did you come from?
- Where have you come from?
780
01:13:11.200 --> 01:13:14.000
That's right. Yeah.
From New York. From America.
781
01:13:14.200 --> 01:13:16.100
I don't have anything for you.
782
01:13:36.400 --> 01:13:38.200
My name is Benjamin Margai.
783
01:13:38.900 --> 01:13:41.000
Danny Archer. This is Maddy Bowen.
784
01:13:41.200 --> 01:13:44.200
- Hello. How are you?
- Very well, thank you.
785
01:13:59.100 --> 01:14:01.400
I'm the cameraman?
786
01:14:04.000 --> 01:14:06.900
The Belgians were the first
to chop off limbs in Africa.
787
01:14:07.100 --> 01:14:11.400
King Leopold took one hand
for every hundredth slave in the Congo...
788
01:14:11.600 --> 01:14:13.700
...to keep them in line.
789
01:14:14.300 --> 01:14:17.300
Many of these children
were taken by the RUF.
790
01:14:17.400 --> 01:14:19.400
We have taken them back.
791
01:14:19.600 --> 01:14:22.700
Some of them have been
made to do horrible things.
792
01:14:22.900 --> 01:14:25.900
We are trying
to bring them back to life.
793
01:14:26.100 --> 01:14:27.700
Let me show you.
794
01:14:29.800 --> 01:14:32.100
Imagine doing all this, huh?
795
01:14:33.400 --> 01:14:35.300
What's your excuse?
796
01:14:36.100 --> 01:14:41.400
Well, it's gotten hard to go back
to sipping lattes and talking interest rates.
797
01:14:41.600 --> 01:14:44.300
So you're an action junkie, huh?
798
01:14:45.200 --> 01:14:47.500
Three out of five ex-boyfriends
recently polled...
799
01:14:47.700 --> 01:14:52.100
...say that I prefer to be
in a constant state of crisis.
800
01:14:52.600 --> 01:14:54.900
Maybe I just give a shit.
801
01:14:58.600 --> 01:14:59.600
You were good today.
802
01:15:02.000 --> 01:15:03.400
You know that?
803
01:15:04.500 --> 01:15:06.000
You too.
804
01:15:08.900 --> 01:15:11.900
"--that sometimes they forgot
to close the door.
805
01:15:12.000 --> 01:15:15.100
She also wrote
about her sister Josie...
806
01:15:15.700 --> 01:15:20.700
...who was very ill
and who had to be taken to hospital."
807
01:15:22.700 --> 01:15:23.900
Cheers.
808
01:15:26.700 --> 01:15:29.300
So how many attacks
have there been in the area?
809
01:15:29.500 --> 01:15:32.400
I have known most of the rebels
since they were children.
810
01:15:32.600 --> 01:15:37.100
The local commander is still afraid
I will come after him with my ruler.
811
01:15:38.600 --> 01:15:42.000
So you think because your intentions
are good, they'll spare you, huh?
812
01:15:42.200 --> 01:15:45.000
My heart always told me
that people are inherently good.
813
01:15:45.200 --> 01:15:47.400
My experience suggests otherwise.
814
01:15:47.600 --> 01:15:49.400
But what about you, Mr. Archer?
815
01:15:49.800 --> 01:15:52.200
In your long career as a journalist...
816
01:15:52.400 --> 01:15:55.200
...would you say that people
are mostly good?
817
01:15:57.300 --> 01:15:58.700
No.
818
01:15:59.000 --> 01:16:00.500
I'd say they're just people.
819
01:16:00.700 --> 01:16:04.600
Exactly. It is what they do
that makes them good or bad.
820
01:16:04.800 --> 01:16:08.000
A moment of love,
even in a bad man...
821
01:16:08.300 --> 01:16:10.800
...can give meaning to a life.
822
01:16:11.000 --> 01:16:14.600
None of us knows which path
will lead us to God.
823
01:16:17.300 --> 01:16:18.800
Hey!
824
01:17:06.800 --> 01:17:08.700
It's palm wine.
825
01:17:18.000 --> 01:17:20.900
- Jesus Christ.
- Yeah, yeah. It takes getting used to, huh?
826
01:17:21.100 --> 01:17:22.600
God.
827
01:17:22.700 --> 01:17:25.500
- Drank that as a boy.
- In Rhodesia?
828
01:17:27.600 --> 01:17:28.900
I take notes.
829
01:17:31.600 --> 01:17:33.300
The Shona...
830
01:17:34.600 --> 01:17:36.900
The Shona have a word for me.
831
01:17:38.700 --> 01:17:42.400
- It means "white boy in Africa."
- When did you leave?
832
01:17:43.000 --> 01:17:44.700
I didn't leave.
833
01:17:44.900 --> 01:17:49.200
I got sent away to South Africa
in 1978 when the munts overran us.
834
01:17:49.600 --> 01:17:51.000
Then you joined the army?
835
01:17:53.900 --> 01:17:56.100
Yeah. Yeah, I did my time in Angola.
836
01:17:56.200 --> 01:17:58.900
- The 32 Battalion.
- That's right.
837
01:18:01.300 --> 01:18:04.600
You know, contrary to what
you might think about us...
838
01:18:04.700 --> 01:18:08.200
...we fought with the blacks, huh?
Yeah. Side by side.
839
01:18:08.400 --> 01:18:12.100
There was no apartheid in a foxhole.
The colonel always used to tell us that.
840
01:18:12.300 --> 01:18:15.700
- This is Colonel Coetzee?
- Yeah.
841
01:18:18.000 --> 01:18:21.400
Then, of course, it's 1994.
No more army.
842
01:18:21.500 --> 01:18:23.400
No more apartheid.
843
01:18:23.500 --> 01:18:26.900
Truth and reconciliation
and all of that rubbish, you know.
844
01:18:27.100 --> 01:18:28.500
Kumbaya.
845
01:18:29.300 --> 01:18:32.100
We fought and died together,
you know?
846
01:18:32.300 --> 01:18:35.500
Black and white. Most people back home
didn't even know we were at war.
847
01:18:35.700 --> 01:18:37.600
We thought we were
fighting Communism...
848
01:18:37.700 --> 01:18:41.600
...but in the end, it was all about
who gets what, you know?
849
01:18:41.800 --> 01:18:44.800
Ivory, oil, gold:
850
01:18:45.800 --> 01:18:47.500
Diamonds.
851
01:18:50.800 --> 01:18:53.800
So one day I decided,
"Fuck it," you know?
852
01:18:54.400 --> 01:18:55.900
"I'm gonna get mine."
853
01:18:56.100 --> 01:18:57.700
You gonna steal his diamond?
854
01:19:05.200 --> 01:19:08.900
That diamond is my ticket
out of this godforsaken continent.
855
01:19:09.100 --> 01:19:11.000
That doesn't answer the question.
856
01:19:21.600 --> 01:19:25.700
My dad came home
from the war in '69.
857
01:19:28.000 --> 01:19:29.900
And it took him...
858
01:19:31.000 --> 01:19:33.100
...about 20 years to get right.
859
01:19:35.000 --> 01:19:36.300
What?
860
01:19:39.100 --> 01:19:43.400
You Americans love to talk
about your feelings, huh?
861
01:19:43.600 --> 01:19:45.900
So, what does that mean?
What does that mean?
862
01:19:46.000 --> 01:19:48.200
- Got a thing for messed-up vets now?
- Shut up.
863
01:19:50.200 --> 01:19:51.600
You lost both your parents.
864
01:19:52.500 --> 01:19:55.400
That's a polite way
of putting it, yeah.
865
01:19:58.000 --> 01:20:00.300
Mom was raped and shot...
866
01:20:03.200 --> 01:20:06.300
...and Dad was decapitated
and hung from a hook in the barn.
867
01:20:07.800 --> 01:20:09.600
I was 9.
868
01:20:13.200 --> 01:20:14.800
Boohoo, right?
869
01:20:18.500 --> 01:20:20.600
Sometimes I wonder...
870
01:20:23.700 --> 01:20:26.800
...will God ever forgive us
for what we've done to each other?
871
01:20:30.400 --> 01:20:33.300
Then I look around and I realize...
872
01:20:34.200 --> 01:20:37.700
...God left this place a long time ago.
873
01:20:44.400 --> 01:20:46.400
It's...
874
01:20:48.700 --> 01:20:50.600
What's the point, huh?
875
01:21:34.100 --> 01:21:36.100
Oh, shit. Keep moving, huh?
876
01:21:36.300 --> 01:21:38.000
- What?
- Drive at them. They'll panic.
877
01:21:38.200 --> 01:21:40.500
Do you know where the word
"infantry" comes from?
878
01:21:40.700 --> 01:21:44.000
It means "child soldier."
They are just children.
879
01:21:44.100 --> 01:21:47.800
- Stop! Stop! RUF on the road!
- Hi. Hello. Hello.
880
01:21:49.000 --> 01:21:50.100
Hello, little brothers.
881
01:21:50.300 --> 01:21:52.800
- RUF on the road!
- Yeah, yeah. What is your names?
882
01:21:53.300 --> 01:21:55.600
I'm Dead Body.
Who is this motherfucker?
883
01:21:55.800 --> 01:21:57.400
We are teachers on our way to Kono.
884
01:21:57.600 --> 01:21:59.800
Only RUF on the road.
885
01:22:00.000 --> 01:22:01.900
- RUF only!
- Yes, yes, I understand that.
886
01:22:02.100 --> 01:22:03.500
- Only RUF!
- But son, this is--
887
01:22:05.700 --> 01:22:07.300
Don't move! Don't move! Fuck.
888
01:22:09.600 --> 01:22:12.900
Jesus Christ! Maddy, press your hand
against the exit wound there, huh?
889
01:22:13.100 --> 01:22:15.400
- Got it.
- Keep it there, huh?
890
01:22:15.600 --> 01:22:17.300
Whatever you do,
don't talk, all right?
891
01:22:17.500 --> 01:22:19.300
Is there any wine left in that jug?
892
01:22:19.500 --> 01:22:21.400
- Here.
- Pour it all over everything, huh?
893
01:22:22.900 --> 01:22:25.800
The colonel's gonna have a medic
at the airstrip in Kono.
894
01:22:26.000 --> 01:22:29.000
- How far is it?
- You said not to talk.
895
01:22:29.300 --> 01:22:30.500
A comedian, huh?
896
01:22:44.700 --> 01:22:47.100
- How's his pulse?
- I can feel it sometimes.
897
01:22:57.500 --> 01:23:00.500
- Hold it right there.
- Stop.
898
01:23:00.600 --> 01:23:01.900
Papers, please.
899
01:23:06.000 --> 01:23:07.300
Excuse me.
900
01:23:07.400 --> 01:23:10.400
I was just trying
to keep pressure on the wound.
901
01:23:10.500 --> 01:23:13.100
- He's lost a lot of blood.
- You'll be all right, huh?
902
01:23:13.700 --> 01:23:15.000
Will you?
903
01:23:15.700 --> 01:23:18.700
I'll check on him in the tent
in a little bit. Thank you.
904
01:23:19.000 --> 01:23:20.300
Hey.
905
01:23:20.900 --> 01:23:22.800
Look who's alive, eh?
906
01:23:23.000 --> 01:23:24.400
I told the H you'd be back.
907
01:23:26.300 --> 01:23:29.300
I'm afraid we're evacuating
all non-military personnel, miss.
908
01:23:29.400 --> 01:23:31.300
Transport touches down at 1600.
909
01:23:31.400 --> 01:23:33.200
She's with me, all right?
910
01:23:33.400 --> 01:23:37.100
No exceptions, pal. This is gonna be ugly.
Colonel doesn't want an audience.
911
01:23:37.200 --> 01:23:40.000
Is I.R.'s presence here
known to other African nations?
912
01:23:41.500 --> 01:23:43.600
- She's with you?
- Yeah.
913
01:23:44.700 --> 01:23:46.600
Come on. The colonel's this way.
914
01:23:46.700 --> 01:23:48.600
Give me a minute, huh?
915
01:23:51.800 --> 01:23:54.300
We block their escape
by blowing the bridge.
916
01:23:55.900 --> 01:23:57.600
That's correct.
917
01:23:58.400 --> 01:24:00.700
You made it out. Well done.
918
01:24:00.900 --> 01:24:02.800
Negative, Kilo Foxtrot, stand by.
919
01:24:03.500 --> 01:24:07.100
- Colonel, sir.
- So must be real, then.
920
01:24:08.300 --> 01:24:09.500
The pink.
921
01:24:10.000 --> 01:24:12.600
Well, you're part
of this operation now.
922
01:24:12.800 --> 01:24:16.300
First we snuff everything that moves
out there, then we find your diamond.
923
01:24:16.400 --> 01:24:18.100
Colonel?
924
01:24:18.600 --> 01:24:21.000
Go get kitted. Yes?
925
01:24:27.400 --> 01:24:29.300
Move, move, move!
926
01:24:29.600 --> 01:24:32.800
- Go get your kit.
- Will do, chum. Will do.
927
01:24:36.400 --> 01:24:39.500
It's go time, all right?
Meet me behind the tents.
928
01:24:42.600 --> 01:24:44.300
How's Benjamin?
929
01:24:44.500 --> 01:24:46.000
They say he'll live.
930
01:24:47.300 --> 01:24:48.600
Good. Good.
931
01:24:56.000 --> 01:24:57.800
Listen, Maddy...
932
01:24:59.200 --> 01:25:00.900
...I need you to do me one last favor.
933
01:25:02.000 --> 01:25:03.400
Yeah?
934
01:25:05.300 --> 01:25:07.000
Tell that guard
you wanna put him...
935
01:25:07.200 --> 01:25:09.800
...on the cover of Soldier of Fortune
magazine for me.
936
01:25:15.900 --> 01:25:17.100
You're going in.
937
01:25:21.500 --> 01:25:23.800
You and Solomon.
938
01:25:25.900 --> 01:25:26.900
You're going in now.
939
01:25:27.800 --> 01:25:30.000
Your plane leaves
in a few minutes, huh?
940
01:25:32.600 --> 01:25:34.600
You're an idiot.
941
01:25:38.900 --> 01:25:41.700
- What if I wanted to go in with you?
- I'd say no.
942
01:25:41.900 --> 01:25:43.900
- What if I insist?
- I'd insist back.
943
01:25:50.000 --> 01:25:51.200
It's my story.
944
01:25:51.400 --> 01:25:54.800
Your story is Van De Kaap, all right?
That stone is mine.
945
01:25:54.900 --> 01:25:58.400
I'm not leaving here without it,
you understand?
946
01:25:59.800 --> 01:26:02.700
Please, just give me two minutes.
947
01:26:19.500 --> 01:26:20.900
Yeah.
948
01:26:32.200 --> 01:26:33.900
- Hello.
- Hi.
949
01:26:34.000 --> 01:26:37.300
My name is Maddy Bowen.
I'm with Vital Affairs magazine.
950
01:26:37.400 --> 01:26:39.900
I was wondering
if I could ask you a few questions.
951
01:26:40.100 --> 01:26:41.600
Well, that depends what they are.
952
01:26:41.800 --> 01:26:45.700
Oh, I see you're familiar
with our devious ways, aren't you?
953
01:26:46.500 --> 01:26:48.400
Okay, so I'll start
with something simple.
954
01:27:01.000 --> 01:27:03.700
And before that you were with
the South African Defense--?
955
01:27:03.800 --> 01:27:05.500
- Defense Force, correct.
- Of course.
956
01:27:05.700 --> 01:27:09.100
And was that with Colonel Coetzee?
Were you in Angola?
957
01:27:09.300 --> 01:27:10.800
Angola, yeah.
958
01:27:12.400 --> 01:27:15.400
That is all I really need to know.
Thank you so much.
959
01:27:15.600 --> 01:27:17.100
- Thank you.
- Okay.
960
01:27:27.100 --> 01:27:28.500
Thank you, huh?
961
01:27:28.600 --> 01:27:31.100
Just keeping my end of the deal.
962
01:27:31.700 --> 01:27:33.000
Good luck to you, Solomon.
963
01:27:33.300 --> 01:27:34.800
Okay.
964
01:27:35.900 --> 01:27:39.800
- I hope you find what you're looking for.
- Thank you for all you have done.
965
01:27:47.200 --> 01:27:49.800
- Listen, I--
- No, you listen.
966
01:27:54.400 --> 01:27:56.300
In another life maybe, all right?
967
01:27:57.800 --> 01:27:59.600
Yeah. Sure.
968
01:27:59.800 --> 01:28:01.100
Yeah.
969
01:28:05.500 --> 01:28:07.600
You find yourself a good man,
all right, Maddy?
970
01:28:13.500 --> 01:28:16.600
You know, I've got three sisters.
971
01:28:16.700 --> 01:28:19.400
They're all married to good men.
972
01:28:21.300 --> 01:28:22.300
I prefer my life.
973
01:28:25.000 --> 01:28:29.400
Here is my office phone...
974
01:28:29.600 --> 01:28:32.000
...home phone, cellphone.
975
01:28:34.100 --> 01:28:37.200
I'm used to being pursued,
but what the heck.
976
01:28:48.400 --> 01:28:50.500
You better get on that plane, huh?
977
01:28:52.300 --> 01:28:54.200
You should get on that plane.
978
01:29:02.400 --> 01:29:04.200
So should you.
979
01:29:10.600 --> 01:29:11.800
You gonna call me?
980
01:29:15.600 --> 01:29:17.100
Soon as I'm near a phone, yeah.
981
01:29:18.000 --> 01:29:20.400
Yeah, right.
982
01:29:42.100 --> 01:29:45.400
- Where is he?
- I don't know.
983
01:29:49.900 --> 01:29:51.500
Oh, shit.
984
01:29:51.800 --> 01:29:54.500
Nabil? Yeah, I'll call you
when we get closer, all right?
985
01:29:54.700 --> 01:29:57.300
You keep me posted. Right.
986
01:29:57.500 --> 01:30:01.300
All right. I set the pace, huh?
Two-hour marches, five-minute breaks.
987
01:30:01.500 --> 01:30:05.300
If I hold my hand up like this, you stop.
If I point to the dirt, you lie flat.
988
01:30:05.500 --> 01:30:09.000
If I say go, you move like your life
depended on it. Understood?
989
01:30:09.200 --> 01:30:11.900
- Yes, boss.
- Come on.
990
01:30:22.100 --> 01:30:23.800
Tell me about the stone.
991
01:30:24.000 --> 01:30:26.600
Is it clear or is it milky?
992
01:30:26.800 --> 01:30:28.300
Clear.
993
01:30:28.500 --> 01:30:30.900
And the color, is it strong?
994
01:30:31.100 --> 01:30:32.300
Does it hold the light?
995
01:30:32.500 --> 01:30:34.500
It is as you say.
996
01:30:35.000 --> 01:30:38.100
- About the size of a bird's egg?
- Yes.
997
01:30:38.300 --> 01:30:42.500
One hundred carats.
Come on, let's pick up the pace.
998
01:31:24.000 --> 01:31:25.400
Dia!
999
01:31:27.300 --> 01:31:29.300
Stop the truck!
1000
01:31:30.000 --> 01:31:31.700
I thought it was Dia.
1001
01:32:25.700 --> 01:32:27.200
Wake up.
1002
01:32:29.100 --> 01:32:32.200
Don't worry, they're gone, huh?
1003
01:32:33.500 --> 01:32:36.600
You know, I once had this buddy...
1004
01:32:36.800 --> 01:32:38.700
...named Mabhoko.
1005
01:32:39.400 --> 01:32:42.700
We used to hunt bush meat
together as kids, huh?
1006
01:32:43.500 --> 01:32:44.800
Baboons.
1007
01:32:45.000 --> 01:32:47.900
Baboons, they were
the hardest to catch. They're...
1008
01:32:49.000 --> 01:32:50.300
They're cunning.
1009
01:32:50.500 --> 01:32:52.600
Cunning creatures.
1010
01:32:52.900 --> 01:32:55.500
Fast, strong.
1011
01:32:55.700 --> 01:32:57.900
Got good eyesight.
1012
01:32:58.400 --> 01:33:02.400
We would always find them
by the smell of their shit.
1013
01:33:02.600 --> 01:33:07.700
And that's how we learned to track
your black terrorists in Angola, huh?
1014
01:33:11.800 --> 01:33:13.200
By the smell of your shit.
1015
01:33:14.300 --> 01:33:15.700
It's not...
1016
01:33:15.900 --> 01:33:18.600
It's not the same as a baboon's.
1017
01:33:20.900 --> 01:33:24.400
But, you know, after you skin it...
1018
01:33:25.800 --> 01:33:28.000
...the flesh of a baboon...
1019
01:33:28.300 --> 01:33:30.700
...isn't that much different
than a man's, you know.
1020
01:33:34.100 --> 01:33:38.000
I'll tell you, I can track anything.
1021
01:33:50.200 --> 01:33:52.400
You risk my life like that again...
1022
01:33:57.800 --> 01:33:59.900
...and I'll peel your face
back off your head.
1023
01:34:02.400 --> 01:34:04.700
Do you understand?
1024
01:34:12.900 --> 01:34:15.000
Make us a fire.
1025
01:35:25.300 --> 01:35:26.900
What'd he say?
1026
01:35:27.000 --> 01:35:29.200
We are going the right way.
1027
01:35:36.300 --> 01:35:39.100
Hold up there, my man.
It's this way, huh?
1028
01:35:40.500 --> 01:35:42.700
Where do you think you are going?
1029
01:35:44.400 --> 01:35:46.100
Stop!
1030
01:35:46.300 --> 01:35:48.000
I said, stop!
1031
01:35:48.500 --> 01:35:50.000
He is not down there, all right?
1032
01:35:52.100 --> 01:35:55.700
All right. You're gonna need
some of that old discipline, huh?
1033
01:35:55.900 --> 01:35:58.200
Now you listen here, my boy,
and you listen well.
1034
01:35:58.300 --> 01:36:00.300
You are not going down there.
Are we clear?
1035
01:36:00.500 --> 01:36:02.100
You are not the master.
1036
01:36:02.300 --> 01:36:05.900
Right now, that is exactly what I am,
and you'd better remember it, Kaffir!
1037
01:36:21.100 --> 01:36:22.400
Don't you fucking move, huh?
1038
01:36:22.600 --> 01:36:24.500
Don't you move. Don't you move, huh?
1039
01:36:24.700 --> 01:36:27.000
- My son is there!
- Your son is gone!
1040
01:36:27.200 --> 01:36:28.500
- He is alive!
- He's gone!
1041
01:36:28.700 --> 01:36:31.300
He's alive! He's there
with those crazy people!
1042
01:36:32.500 --> 01:36:35.900
I am his father! His father!
I should have protected him!
1043
01:36:36.400 --> 01:36:40.300
I must go find him.
I cannot live without knowing!
1044
01:36:40.500 --> 01:36:42.700
Shoot me if you want, but I'm going.
1045
01:36:44.800 --> 01:36:48.200
Why should it matter,
I'm dead already.
1046
01:36:56.100 --> 01:36:58.400
We wait until dark, huh?
1047
01:37:27.500 --> 01:37:28.900
Are you satisfied?
1048
01:37:31.900 --> 01:37:34.400
All right, come on.
1049
01:37:39.200 --> 01:37:41.400
--is fighting for Sierra Leone
1050
01:37:41.500 --> 01:37:44.600
RUF is fighting for Sierra Leone
1051
01:37:44.800 --> 01:37:47.700
Go tell my parents
They may see me no more
1052
01:37:47.900 --> 01:37:50.900
In the battlefield
We're fighting forever
1053
01:37:51.100 --> 01:37:54.000
Go tell my parents
They may see me no more
1054
01:37:54.200 --> 01:37:55.700
In the battlefield...
1055
01:37:58.200 --> 01:38:00.200
You are how old?
1056
01:38:00.400 --> 01:38:02.100
Me? I'm 31.
1057
01:38:02.300 --> 01:38:04.500
And you have no wife?
1058
01:38:04.900 --> 01:38:07.800
- No.
- No children?
1059
01:38:09.000 --> 01:38:10.300
No.
1060
01:38:10.400 --> 01:38:12.100
And no home?
1061
01:38:12.200 --> 01:38:13.900
No.
1062
01:38:14.600 --> 01:38:17.000
But you have money, yes?
1063
01:38:17.200 --> 01:38:19.400
Yeah, some.
1064
01:38:19.600 --> 01:38:21.600
But not enough?
1065
01:38:24.100 --> 01:38:25.700
No.
1066
01:38:26.400 --> 01:38:30.900
If you get this diamond,
you will have enough money, yes?
1067
01:38:33.100 --> 01:38:34.100
Yes.
1068
01:38:34.300 --> 01:38:37.100
Then you will get
a wife and children?
1069
01:38:37.200 --> 01:38:38.600
Probably not, no.
1070
01:38:40.700 --> 01:38:41.700
What?
1071
01:38:43.800 --> 01:38:45.300
What?
1072
01:38:45.700 --> 01:38:47.800
I am confused.
1073
01:38:48.900 --> 01:38:50.300
Yeah?
1074
01:38:50.500 --> 01:38:53.300
That makes two of us, my bru.
1075
01:38:55.800 --> 01:38:59.300
Oh, Christ.
I've gotta quit smoking, huh?
1076
01:38:59.900 --> 01:39:01.900
Why don't you?
1077
01:39:02.200 --> 01:39:04.600
I'll tell you what, Solomon.
1078
01:39:04.800 --> 01:39:09.400
You find me this diamond,
and I'll quit right then and there, huh?
1079
01:39:16.800 --> 01:39:19.800
- You were born in Zimbabwe?
- Oh, yeah.
1080
01:39:19.900 --> 01:39:23.100
- Is it beautiful there?
- Sure you're not a reporter?
1081
01:39:23.500 --> 01:39:27.000
Because you ask a hell of a lot
of questions, my man.
1082
01:39:34.600 --> 01:39:38.300
My grandfather told
many stories of war.
1083
01:39:38.600 --> 01:39:41.400
How the Mende fought the Temne.
1084
01:39:41.600 --> 01:39:45.300
Or how two tribes would fight
when somebody had stolen a woman.
1085
01:39:55.400 --> 01:39:58.700
I understand white people
want our diamonds, yes?
1086
01:40:01.800 --> 01:40:05.500
But how can my own people
do this to each other?
1087
01:40:13.800 --> 01:40:15.900
I know good people...
1088
01:40:16.000 --> 01:40:18.900
...who say there is something
wrong with us...
1089
01:40:19.300 --> 01:40:20.400
...inside our black skin.
1090
01:40:20.600 --> 01:40:23.900
That we were better off
when the white man ruled.
1091
01:40:25.800 --> 01:40:28.600
But my son is good.
1092
01:40:30.200 --> 01:40:32.400
And when he grows up...
1093
01:40:32.600 --> 01:40:33.800
...and peace comes...
1094
01:40:37.800 --> 01:40:40.500
...this place will be a paradise.
1095
01:40:48.400 --> 01:40:50.800
We'll get your son back, huh?
1096
01:41:32.500 --> 01:41:34.900
Where is it exactly?
1097
01:41:36.400 --> 01:41:39.300
Through the camp, by the river.
1098
01:41:43.900 --> 01:41:45.600
Christ.
1099
01:41:46.100 --> 01:41:47.700
Okay.
1100
01:41:48.400 --> 01:41:50.200
I'm gonna make contact
with the colonel.
1101
01:41:50.400 --> 01:41:51.900
He'll send in an air strike.
1102
01:41:52.400 --> 01:41:55.300
- What is that?
- A chopper, huh? An attack helicopter.
1103
01:41:55.500 --> 01:41:58.000
- We use it as a diversion.
- What if my son is there?
1104
01:41:58.200 --> 01:41:59.500
- He isn't.
- How do you know?
1105
01:41:59.700 --> 01:42:03.300
I said we do it my way now, all right?
Don't fuck with me.
1106
01:42:13.200 --> 01:42:15.600
Cordell, it's Danny.
1107
01:42:15.800 --> 01:42:18.100
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Shut up and listen, all right?
1108
01:42:18.300 --> 01:42:21.100
You tell the colonel I've found the stone.
1109
01:42:21.300 --> 01:42:24.300
No, I haven't got it in my hands,
but I'm OP'ing its location.
1110
01:42:24.400 --> 01:42:26.000
It's a major rebel camp, my man.
1111
01:42:26.200 --> 01:42:28.600
You tell him to send in the dakadak.
1112
01:42:29.100 --> 01:42:32.000
Because I stole a GPS, that's how.
1113
01:42:32.200 --> 01:42:34.700
If you shut up and listen,
I could give the coordinates.
1114
01:42:35.200 --> 01:42:38.200
Zero-nine-zero-five-four-two-four, north.
1115
01:42:38.400 --> 01:42:42.900
Three-two-seven-two-nine
three-zero-five-zero, east.
1116
01:42:43.100 --> 01:42:45.400
I'll call back at midnight to confirm.
1117
01:42:48.200 --> 01:42:51.100
You can look all night,
my friend, right?
1118
01:42:51.300 --> 01:42:53.900
I promise you he is not there.
1119
01:42:59.200 --> 01:43:01.400
They're coming in the morning, all right?
1120
01:43:01.500 --> 01:43:04.000
No movement, my friend. You stay still.
1121
01:43:05.900 --> 01:43:08.300
When it gets dark,
then we move in closer.
1122
01:43:30.500 --> 01:43:33.500
Solomon. Shit.
1123
01:43:44.300 --> 01:43:45.700
I can do it.
1124
01:43:45.800 --> 01:43:46.900
- Help me.
- Help him.
1125
01:43:47.100 --> 01:43:49.200
Thank you, Papa.
1126
01:44:31.100 --> 01:44:33.400
Hey, you smell.
1127
01:44:34.600 --> 01:44:36.000
That's fine.
1128
01:44:48.300 --> 01:44:50.300
- Ready? I'm winning.
- Okay, let's go.
1129
01:44:50.500 --> 01:44:52.100
Play, man.
1130
01:44:53.700 --> 01:44:56.600
- Play. Play the card.
- Play.
1131
01:45:23.400 --> 01:45:24.500
Dia.
1132
01:45:27.600 --> 01:45:29.300
Leave me alone.
1133
01:45:30.300 --> 01:45:33.500
- Dia. I'm your papa. Come with me.
- Hey.
1134
01:45:33.700 --> 01:45:35.400
- Dia.
- Get away from me.
1135
01:45:35.600 --> 01:45:37.400
- Dia. Dia!
- I do not know you. Traitor!
1136
01:45:37.800 --> 01:45:40.300
- Enemy! Enemy!
- What the hell are you doing?
1137
01:45:40.500 --> 01:45:41.700
- What are you doing?
- I don't know you!
1138
01:45:41.900 --> 01:45:43.200
- What's wrong?
- I hate you!
1139
01:45:43.300 --> 01:45:45.100
- Dia, come with me!
- I hate you!
1140
01:45:45.200 --> 01:45:46.800
Get away from me!
1141
01:45:49.200 --> 01:45:51.100
- Get him!
- Don't shoot!
1142
01:45:51.600 --> 01:45:53.800
- Don't shoot! Don't--! Don't shoot!
- I hate you!
1143
01:45:54.000 --> 01:45:55.900
- Fisherman! Traitor!
- Don't shoot!
1144
01:45:56.100 --> 01:45:58.300
Get away from me!
1145
01:46:05.400 --> 01:46:07.600
I knew you would come back.
1146
01:46:08.100 --> 01:46:11.500
I have dug and dug and dug,
but I've found nothing.
1147
01:46:11.700 --> 01:46:13.600
Nothing.
1148
01:46:13.900 --> 01:46:15.400
Dig, dig, dig!
1149
01:46:15.600 --> 01:46:17.900
You will find it for me.
1150
01:46:18.800 --> 01:46:21.100
You will dig up
what you have come back for.
1151
01:46:21.300 --> 01:46:22.300
No.
1152
01:46:22.500 --> 01:46:24.900
Why should the diamond
go to the foreign devils?
1153
01:46:25.700 --> 01:46:28.900
We will use it
to make the country strong.
1154
01:46:29.400 --> 01:46:32.000
RUF is fighting for the people!
1155
01:46:34.300 --> 01:46:37.400
RUF is fighting for Sierra Leone!
1156
01:46:40.300 --> 01:46:42.000
Pick it up.
1157
01:46:43.200 --> 01:46:46.200
Why? You are going to kill me anyway.
1158
01:46:46.400 --> 01:46:49.500
I do not need to kill you,
Solomon Vandy.
1159
01:46:52.300 --> 01:46:54.500
If you do not bring me the diamond...
1160
01:46:54.700 --> 01:46:56.900
...I will find the rest of your family.
1161
01:46:57.100 --> 01:46:59.500
Just as I have found your son.
1162
01:47:00.600 --> 01:47:04.000
I will rape your wife
in front of your eyes...
1163
01:47:04.800 --> 01:47:07.100
...slit her throat...
1164
01:47:07.700 --> 01:47:10.000
...and I will keep your daughters
for myself.
1165
01:47:15.500 --> 01:47:17.900
You think I am a devil...
1166
01:47:18.100 --> 01:47:20.400
...but only because I have lived in hell.
1167
01:47:22.000 --> 01:47:24.700
I want to get out.
1168
01:47:25.300 --> 01:47:27.400
You will help me.
1169
01:47:30.200 --> 01:47:31.500
I don't remember.
1170
01:47:31.700 --> 01:47:34.700
Find it or your family will die!
1171
01:47:35.600 --> 01:47:37.500
Now pick it up!
1172
01:47:53.000 --> 01:47:54.500
- Go!
- Bastards!
1173
01:47:54.600 --> 01:47:56.000
Shoot it!
1174
01:48:01.000 --> 01:48:02.000
Dia!
1175
01:48:14.000 --> 01:48:16.200
Come, boy. Come. This way. This way.
1176
01:48:17.100 --> 01:48:18.300
Dia!
1177
01:48:41.200 --> 01:48:42.800
Colonel, we think Archer's there.
1178
01:48:43.000 --> 01:48:45.800
I don't give a damn who's down there.
Kill them all.
1179
01:48:56.200 --> 01:48:57.400
Dia!
1180
01:49:12.200 --> 01:49:13.500
I'm coming!
1181
01:49:17.000 --> 01:49:18.700
- Dia!
- Bastard!
1182
01:49:41.900 --> 01:49:43.200
No!
1183
01:50:03.300 --> 01:50:04.700
Dia!
1184
01:51:10.900 --> 01:51:13.800
- We found his digger, sir.
- Keep him close.
1185
01:51:15.800 --> 01:51:18.000
- Danny boy.
- Colonel.
1186
01:51:18.200 --> 01:51:21.500
- Thanks for calling it in.
- Yeah, yeah. Always happy to help, huh?
1187
01:51:21.700 --> 01:51:25.000
So where is it? The stone?
1188
01:51:25.200 --> 01:51:27.100
We split, huh? Fifty-fifty, all right?
1189
01:51:27.300 --> 01:51:28.900
Look around you, Danny boy.
1190
01:51:29.100 --> 01:51:32.100
You're not in a position
to be dictating terms.
1191
01:51:32.200 --> 01:51:34.300
Then you will never find it, sir.
1192
01:51:34.500 --> 01:51:36.100
That's correct.
1193
01:51:37.800 --> 01:51:40.400
- But he will.
- Come. Up.
1194
01:51:42.100 --> 01:51:44.300
Introduce me to your digger.
1195
01:51:45.900 --> 01:51:47.600
Solomon Vandy.
1196
01:51:47.700 --> 01:51:49.900
This is Colonel Coetzee.
He wants the diamond.
1197
01:51:50.100 --> 01:51:53.100
- No more than you.
- Fuck.
1198
01:51:53.300 --> 01:51:55.300
You gonna show us where it's hidden?
1199
01:51:57.900 --> 01:51:59.600
Does he speak English?
1200
01:51:59.800 --> 01:52:02.800
He will only tell me, sir.
I promise you that.
1201
01:52:03.700 --> 01:52:06.700
- Let me talk to him, huh?
- Go on.
1202
01:52:13.500 --> 01:52:15.900
All right, my friend.
1203
01:52:16.000 --> 01:52:18.000
End of the line here, huh?
1204
01:52:18.100 --> 01:52:21.400
- You just tell him where it is, all right?
- I do not trust him.
1205
01:52:21.600 --> 01:52:25.000
I don't trust him either,
but we haven't got much of a choice here.
1206
01:52:26.700 --> 01:52:29.800
I promise you
he will shoot us both in the head.
1207
01:52:30.300 --> 01:52:33.000
Right, tell him, huh?
Tell him where it is, huh?
1208
01:52:33.200 --> 01:52:35.800
- Go on. Come on.
- I'm not feeling the love, Danny.
1209
01:52:37.000 --> 01:52:39.800
All right.
No more messing about, all right?
1210
01:52:40.000 --> 01:52:43.000
I said tell him where it is!
Tell him where it is! Now!
1211
01:52:43.200 --> 01:52:44.800
Tell him!
1212
01:52:46.000 --> 01:52:47.800
- No.
- Fucking--
1213
01:52:48.000 --> 01:52:50.700
Danny, there are other ways
to do this, okay?
1214
01:52:50.900 --> 01:52:52.500
Yeah, yeah.
1215
01:53:00.700 --> 01:53:03.700
- If he tells us, do we have a deal, sir?
- Seventy-thirty.
1216
01:53:03.800 --> 01:53:06.200
Sixty-forty. I've already lined up a buyer.
1217
01:53:06.400 --> 01:53:08.100
Agreed.
1218
01:53:13.200 --> 01:53:14.800
Come here.
1219
01:53:17.400 --> 01:53:20.800
This is his son. Vandy will do
whatever you want for his sake, all right?
1220
01:53:21.000 --> 01:53:25.800
Danny, you're a pisser, man. Well done.
Boys, we move out.
1221
01:53:28.500 --> 01:53:30.800
What do you say, Mr. Vandy?
1222
01:53:31.300 --> 01:53:34.200
- You ready to take a walk?
- Come on.
1223
01:53:40.500 --> 01:53:42.100
Come on.
1224
01:53:55.000 --> 01:53:58.100
So who's the buyer?
I'm guessing London.
1225
01:53:58.300 --> 01:54:01.600
Well, they no longer accept
conflict diamonds, huh?
1226
01:54:01.800 --> 01:54:04.200
Wouldn't hurt to interest
some other parties.
1227
01:54:04.800 --> 01:54:07.800
- Start a bidding war.
- What, one war's not enough for you, huh?
1228
01:54:08.700 --> 01:54:10.400
I missed you, Danny.
1229
01:54:10.700 --> 01:54:14.900
See? It is here.
He has tried to find it.
1230
01:54:15.000 --> 01:54:17.700
All right, Mr. Vandy.
Time for you to start digging.
1231
01:54:32.800 --> 01:54:35.100
Hey, boet, have you got a smoke?
1232
01:54:35.500 --> 01:54:37.400
Smoking will kill you.
1233
01:54:38.200 --> 01:54:39.700
Sorry.
1234
01:54:42.800 --> 01:54:44.700
It's all right.
1235
01:54:44.800 --> 01:54:47.000
Time I quit smoking anyway,
huh, Solomon?
1236
01:55:01.500 --> 01:55:02.800
- It's gone.
- What?
1237
01:55:03.000 --> 01:55:05.100
Someone has taken it.
1238
01:55:06.200 --> 01:55:10.000
This is where I buried it.
It isn't here.
1239
01:55:10.400 --> 01:55:13.800
Well, then there's no reason
for any of you to stay alive. Is there?
1240
01:55:18.100 --> 01:55:19.800
Wait, wait, wait.
1241
01:55:20.000 --> 01:55:22.200
I know, I know. I know where it is.
1242
01:55:22.700 --> 01:55:24.700
- I know where it is.
- It better be there.
1243
01:55:29.800 --> 01:55:30.800
Yes.
1244
01:55:31.000 --> 01:55:34.400
Oh, here, here.
It is here.
1245
01:55:34.600 --> 01:55:36.200
- Yeah? Yeah, there it is.
- Yes.
1246
01:55:37.400 --> 01:55:38.800
Fuck!
1247
01:55:57.400 --> 01:55:59.400
TIA, huh, Danny?
1248
01:56:00.800 --> 01:56:02.400
TIA.
1249
01:56:09.300 --> 01:56:12.700
Keep digging, huh?
They'll be here any second. Come on.
1250
01:56:15.000 --> 01:56:16.200
Keep digging.
1251
01:56:29.100 --> 01:56:31.800
- It had better be there, huh?
- Yes, yes.
1252
01:56:34.800 --> 01:56:36.400
Have you got it?
1253
01:56:37.900 --> 01:56:41.100
- Have you got it, huh?
- Yes, got it. Oh, yes.
1254
01:56:42.600 --> 01:56:43.800
Oh, yes.
1255
01:56:46.000 --> 01:56:47.600
Solomon.
1256
01:56:54.400 --> 01:56:57.400
Dia, what are you doing?
1257
01:56:57.900 --> 01:56:59.400
Dia.
1258
01:57:01.700 --> 01:57:03.600
What are you doing?
1259
01:57:08.500 --> 01:57:09.800
Of the proud Mende tribe.
1260
01:57:15.800 --> 01:57:20.600
You are a good boy
who loves soccer and school.
1261
01:57:22.900 --> 01:57:26.100
Your mother loves you so much.
1262
01:57:28.500 --> 01:57:31.300
She waits by the fire making plantains...
1263
01:57:31.500 --> 01:57:34.100
...and red palm oil stew
with your sister N'Yanda...
1264
01:57:36.400 --> 01:57:38.700
...and the new baby.
1265
01:57:47.600 --> 01:57:49.800
The cows wait for you.
1266
01:57:50.000 --> 01:57:55.800
And Babu, the wild dog
who minds no one but you.
1267
01:57:58.400 --> 01:58:01.700
I know they made you do bad things...
1268
01:58:01.900 --> 01:58:04.400
...but you are not a bad boy.
1269
01:58:07.600 --> 01:58:10.000
I am your father...
1270
01:58:11.700 --> 01:58:14.000
...who loves you.
1271
01:58:15.200 --> 01:58:19.000
And you will come home with me
and be my son again.
1272
01:58:44.400 --> 01:58:46.800
Solomon, we've got to move, huh?
1273
01:58:47.000 --> 01:58:48.500
We've got to--
1274
01:58:51.700 --> 01:58:54.400
Go, go! Move!
1275
01:58:57.200 --> 01:58:58.700
Move. Move.
1276
01:58:58.900 --> 01:59:00.200
Move, move, move!
1277
01:59:00.400 --> 01:59:03.400
Move! Move! Move!
1278
01:59:05.000 --> 01:59:06.300
How far?
1279
01:59:06.400 --> 01:59:08.500
There's an airstrip
at the top of that gorge.
1280
01:59:08.700 --> 01:59:10.800
A plane will meet us, huh?
1281
01:59:11.200 --> 01:59:13.500
Hey, stop. Stop.
1282
01:59:15.800 --> 01:59:19.800
Give it to me.
Come on, give it to me, huh?
1283
01:59:27.300 --> 01:59:30.400
Keep moving. They'll be tracking us.
1284
01:59:36.700 --> 01:59:38.800
Nabil, where are you?
1285
01:59:39.800 --> 01:59:42.500
I'm nearly there.
Tell me what's happening.
1286
01:59:42.600 --> 01:59:46.100
We're about 10 K's out, huh?
We've got it, my friend.
1287
01:59:46.300 --> 01:59:48.200
- Who is we?
- The fisherman and his son.
1288
01:59:48.300 --> 01:59:49.900
Lose them.
1289
02:00:04.100 --> 02:00:06.200
It's at the top of that ridge there, huh?
1290
02:00:06.400 --> 02:00:07.700
You must stop and rest.
1291
02:00:07.800 --> 02:00:10.700
What? And give up the damn stone?
1292
02:00:10.800 --> 02:00:12.900
Keep moving. Come on.
1293
02:00:47.500 --> 02:00:49.900
Come. Come, come.
1294
02:01:37.000 --> 02:01:39.300
I can't. Stop.
1295
02:01:39.400 --> 02:01:41.500
- Okay.
- Stop.
1296
02:02:10.000 --> 02:02:11.100
Come on.
1297
02:02:11.700 --> 02:02:14.300
No! God, no. Stop.
1298
02:02:15.400 --> 02:02:18.700
Christ. No more. No more.
1299
02:03:02.700 --> 02:03:04.400
Take it, huh?
1300
02:03:06.800 --> 02:03:10.000
- Mr. Archer--
- Take it, take it.
1301
02:03:17.000 --> 02:03:18.800
I thought you would steal it from me.
1302
02:03:20.700 --> 02:03:24.300
Yeah, yeah, it occurred to me, huh?
1303
02:03:35.200 --> 02:03:36.900
Listen...
1304
02:03:39.800 --> 02:03:42.200
...this is Maddy's card, huh?
1305
02:03:42.400 --> 02:03:44.600
You call her when
you get to Conakry, all right?
1306
02:03:48.800 --> 02:03:50.800
And don't trust that pilot for a second.
1307
02:03:50.900 --> 02:03:54.000
You point this at his head
if he fucks around, all right?
1308
02:03:54.200 --> 02:03:55.700
I can carry you.
1309
02:04:08.600 --> 02:04:10.000
You take your boy home, huh?
1310
02:04:15.200 --> 02:04:17.900
You take him home, huh?
1311
02:04:22.400 --> 02:04:24.200
- Go! Go!
- Go. Come on.
1312
02:04:25.000 --> 02:04:26.100
Go on!
1313
02:04:31.900 --> 02:04:33.700
Come on. Come on.
1314
02:04:40.500 --> 02:04:42.900
Archer, you're a dead man!
1315
02:04:43.100 --> 02:04:44.900
Yeah, yeah.
1316
02:05:15.600 --> 02:05:17.000
Dia.
1317
02:05:38.200 --> 02:05:39.300
Hello. Maddy Bowen.
1318
02:05:39.600 --> 02:05:41.400
Yeah.
1319
02:05:41.800 --> 02:05:43.400
Thought I'd never call, huh?
1320
02:05:44.300 --> 02:05:48.400
And I'm so glad you did.
Excuse me.
1321
02:05:50.400 --> 02:05:51.500
When am I gonna see you?
1322
02:05:52.700 --> 02:05:58.400
Maddy, I want you to do me
one more favor, huh?
1323
02:05:59.100 --> 02:06:03.600
I want you to go meet Solomon
in Conakry.
1324
02:06:03.800 --> 02:06:06.500
In Guinea?
Why do you want me to go to Guinea?
1325
02:06:09.600 --> 02:06:11.600
We found his son...
1326
02:06:12.600 --> 02:06:16.000
...but he's gonna need some help,
you understand?
1327
02:06:16.800 --> 02:06:17.900
Maddy?
1328
02:06:20.700 --> 02:06:22.500
You're hurt.
1329
02:06:23.200 --> 02:06:24.200
Are you hurt?
1330
02:06:24.400 --> 02:06:27.600
Yeah, well, I've got
a little problem here.
1331
02:06:32.100 --> 02:06:35.800
Okay. You--
You tell me where you are.
1332
02:06:39.100 --> 02:06:40.100
Archer?
1333
02:06:52.300 --> 02:06:57.000
I'm looking at an incredible view
right now.
1334
02:06:58.400 --> 02:07:00.100
I wish you were here, Maddy.
1335
02:07:00.200 --> 02:07:03.900
Okay, then I'm coming to be with you.
You just tell me where you are.
1336
02:07:07.100 --> 02:07:08.400
I don't think so.
1337
02:07:08.600 --> 02:07:11.900
Are you still in Kono? Because I can
get someone there to help you.
1338
02:07:12.100 --> 02:07:16.400
Maddy, you find someplace safe
for the boy, all right?
1339
02:07:16.600 --> 02:07:19.000
And keep him out of sight.
1340
02:07:19.600 --> 02:07:22.300
And get Solomon to London.
1341
02:07:25.400 --> 02:07:28.200
He's bringing something with him.
1342
02:07:28.900 --> 02:07:30.800
But he's gonna need your help.
1343
02:07:32.000 --> 02:07:33.900
Why aren't you bringing it yourself?
1344
02:07:35.400 --> 02:07:40.400
I'm saying it's a real story now.
1345
02:07:41.300 --> 02:07:43.100
And you can write the hell out of it.
1346
02:07:50.300 --> 02:07:52.800
I'm really happy I met you.
1347
02:07:54.400 --> 02:07:55.400
You know that?
1348
02:07:58.700 --> 02:08:00.900
Yeah, I'm...
1349
02:08:02.100 --> 02:08:05.100
I'm really happy I met you too.
1350
02:08:05.700 --> 02:08:09.700
And I wish I could be there with you.
1351
02:08:10.600 --> 02:08:12.600
That's all right.
1352
02:08:15.100 --> 02:08:17.500
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.
1353
02:09:11.100 --> 02:09:13.500
When we get to the stairs,
you just keep walking...
1354
02:09:13.600 --> 02:09:15.700
...and I'll wait for you here.
1355
02:09:16.200 --> 02:09:17.800
You're not coming.
1356
02:09:17.900 --> 02:09:21.200
I'm not here. Good luck.
1357
02:09:42.900 --> 02:09:45.500
You must understand, Mr. Vandy...
1358
02:09:45.700 --> 02:09:51.800
...that your diamond could have ended up
nowhere else but with us.
1359
02:09:55.100 --> 02:09:58.000
- It is not enough.
- I assure you, 2 million pounds...
1360
02:09:58.200 --> 02:10:02.100
...is more than anyone else will offer you
for that stone under the circumstances.
1361
02:10:02.300 --> 02:10:04.900
I want what was promised to me
by Mr. Archer.
1362
02:10:08.400 --> 02:10:11.000
- What was promised to you?
- My family.
1363
02:10:11.300 --> 02:10:13.300
When they are here,
you will get the stone.
1364
02:10:14.000 --> 02:10:15.600
I will have the money too.
1365
02:10:16.900 --> 02:10:18.400
Well, may I see what I'm buying?
1366
02:10:18.600 --> 02:10:21.400
You will get the stone
once my family is here.
1367
02:10:22.100 --> 02:10:23.900
How do I even know you've got it?
1368
02:12:31.800 --> 02:12:34.600
Can you comment on the diamonds
mined in Sierra Leone?
1369
02:12:34.800 --> 02:12:38.700
I'm not going to comment
on some sensationalist magazine article.
1370
02:12:38.800 --> 02:12:41.400
- What about Liberia?
- No comment. No comment.
1371
02:12:41.600 --> 02:12:44.000
- Mr. Van De Kaap--
- That's all I have to say.
1372
02:12:44.200 --> 02:12:45.600
The natural resources
of a country...
1373
02:12:47.600 --> 02:12:50.600
...are the property of its people.
They are not ours to steal...
1374
02:12:51.900 --> 02:12:57.300
...or exploit in the name of our comfort,
our corporations, or our consumerism.
1375
02:13:07.300 --> 02:13:09.300
They're ready for you, sir.
1376
02:13:10.800 --> 02:13:13.200
The Third World is not a world apart.
1377
02:13:13.400 --> 02:13:18.100
And the witness you will hear today
speaks on its behalf.
1378
02:13:18.200 --> 02:13:22.100
Let us hear the voice of that world.
Let us learn from that voice.
1379
02:13:22.300 --> 02:13:25.800
And let us ignore it no more.
1380
02:13:26.000 --> 02:13:29.300
Ladies and gentlemen,
Mr. Solomon Vandy.
