Encyclopedia : D : DE : DEA : Death is a Diamond
Death is a Diamond is a 2004 film, premiering on late-December, and was shot from July 2004 to October 2004.
The film is about three rival gangs, all fighting over a batch of blood diamonds that have been illegally bought from Nigeria to Sydney. The film sold very well in Australia upon its release, but it gained a large amount of criticism for the amount of violence depicted and sales quickly dropped.
Producers Matthew Scott and Daniel Okoduwa planned to create a sequel but due to the back lash, Scott went on and created Questions instead while Okoduwa went on to produce Love, Lost and Temptation (which went on to be one of the most sought after Australian/Nigerian films of 2005).
