Film Description:
World of Diamonds (WOD) short film is an artistic experimental piece that sheds light on the vital issues affecting humans worldwide today while offering a new, bright path forward into a far more equitable future. Inspired by the 2020 pandemic, this piece highlights the inequities across our globe beginning with the racial disparities in death rates from the Covid-19 virus and extending far beyond. Rooted in justice, WOD serves not only as a critique of our values, practices, and health as a species, but also as a spring of hope for significant improvements to these areas so that we may all enjoy a better life here on Earth.
