This documentary about the multiethnic crew of a South African diamond ship off the African coast presents a revealing microcosm of social disintegration.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

Christian Science Monitor by David Sterritt
You meet some fascinating personalities during this uncomfortable voyage.
Expertly edited chronicle doesn't lead to any major explosion, but reveals plenty -- little of it pleasant -- en-route.
New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman
Directors Adi Barash and Ruth Shatz do a brilliant job of letting the South African, Israeli, Cuban and Namibian men aboard speak for themselves.
It's a documentary, but the filmmakers couldn't have scripted a more revealing microcosm of profiteering and exploitation.
Engrossing and brilliantly insightful production.
