God gave you, is it a gift?

We've all always taken it for granted that everything God has given us is a gift. However I found that we were wrong. God has given you something, whether it is good or not is different from whether it is good for you or not.
Diamonds, one of the most beautiful things in the world, bring women the sparkling beauty, the hardest tool to the craftsman, and the truly endless scars to Sierra Leone.
The empty eyes of the child soldier, the skillful shooting method, and the killing declaration like an endorsement are shocking. The rebels took pleasure in slashing the arms of villagers. The vast forest is filled with war, and there is no clean place.
The moment that shocked me the most was when the hero Solomon cried and asked: "I know why the Americans want to kill us, but I don't understand, why do people in our own country want to kill their own people?" 's room. And Archer told him: "God left this place long time ago." The word left interprets the smallness, helplessness, and deep suffering of this country.
All of this is in order to compete for the little, glittering little things.
At this time, diamonds are no longer a gift, but a fire, and this war has continued in Sierra Leone for 12 years. After the war, it was ravaged.
However, twelve years later, through the Kimberley Process, Sierra Leone ended its civil war, started rebuilding its infrastructure, added medical care, and maintained the country's income. It was this evil diamond. At this time, diamonds have become a gift.
So no one knows if what God gave you is a gift or not. Only if you are strong enough, what is given to you is a gift.

    In fact, it has nothing to do with diamonds or diamonds. Africa is the same, and it will be the same without diamonds.

    It is really bad to comment on such realistic movies. Obviously it is a slightly literary feature film, but it is made like a popcorn movie. It is like a machine-processed. The sensational part and the action scene are arranged tightly. When the sensationalism is over, it fights, and when the fight is tired, it will be sensational. But what the movie wants to express is worthy of attention. The inside story of the diamond industry and the military security of African society are shocking.
