Well made production, but gets nowhere

It's a documentary about the industry of diamonds and the threat of synthetic diamonds being mixed with natural diamonds.

Briefly shows De Beers as the company that created the market for diamonds, and the mais driver of pricing.

It fails into investigate anything really documentary about the illusion being talked about.

Doesn't peak into the courtain properly. It's mainly well directed interviews.

The rythm it's adequate, has some fun to the text.

Amazing soundtrack, the interviews are interesting and engaging. Top notch production. But has nothing in the end, no conclusion, nothing really worth it. It just suddenly ends.
