About the Movie:
Diamond Ruff is about redemption, forgiveness, the power of the human spirit and second chances. Orphaned at a young age, Diamond Ruff uses his intelligence and shrewdness to survive. He becomes an accomplished con artist, crime boss and millionaire. On the eve of the biggest job of Diamond's career, his weaknesses surface, setting in motion events that have deadly consequences. Is prison the final fate of Diamond Ruff? Does the Rev. Trek Woods hold the key to Diamond's redemption? Diamond finds himself in a life-changing journey and there are no easy answers. The movie stars Fredro Starr (Rapper from Onyx) as Diamond Ruff and Felicia "Snoop" Pearson (HBO's The Wire), Dennis White (Notorious) and award winning comedian Michael Colyar, and award winning singer, Freddie Jackson.
