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 it's 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).

A conflict diamond (also called a blood diamond or a war diamond) is a diamond mined in a war zone and sold, usually clandestinely, in order to finance an insurgent or invading army's war efforts.
The same argument is used by makers of cultured diamonds such as Gemesis and Apollo Diamond.
Blood diamonds were the main theme of the 2004 Australian/Nigerian film Death is a Diamond.
Diamond entered crime as a member of a gang called the Hudson Dusters.
Diamond was shot five times on one occasion when Schultz's men surprised him at a private dinner and three times on another, when Schultz gunmen opened up with machine guns, killing two bystanders.
Diamond was also the subject of director Budd Boetticher's 1960 film The Rise and Fall of Legs Diamond starring Ray Danton and Warren Oates as well as a 1988 broadway musical later based on the movie.
