Synopsis
This film evokes the mesmerizing and magnetic cult of international football, but from an African perspective. It’s about a modern trade in an unedifying story, involving the sourcing, refinement and export of human raw materials from Africa, for consumption and wealth generation in Europe. Black Diamond chronicles the cycles of illusion and exploitation that revolve around the excavation of raw football talent in Africa.
