The White Diamond is a 2004 documentary by Werner Herzog that illustrates the history of aviation. The story centres around Graham Dorrington, an aeronautical engineer who developed a tear-drop shaped airship which he planned to fly over the forests of Guyana.

 

Most of the footage for the documentary was shot as Dorrington was testing his craft over the Kaieteur falls in Guyana. As well as capturing the test flights the film also features discussion from Dorrington about the mechanical aspects of how his craft works and the problems that he has had to deal with while developing it.
