In an interview with The Daily Signal, “Sound of Freedom” stars Jim Caviezel and Eduardo Verástegui urged viewers of the film to take action against human trafficking.
“This movie has a power because it goes into your heart and it asks you a question,” Caviezel said in the interview.
“When this is all done, what are you gonna do? You’re going to have to meet God at some point. And I believe it’s going to move a lot of whistleblowers to come forward,” the actor continued, hoping that whistleblowers’ actions will “bring an end to this whole thing.”
“Sound of Freedom,” based on the true story of United States government agent Tim Ballard and his fight against child trafficking organizations, is licensed to Angel Studios.
Angel Studios has said that the goal of the film is to “put a spotlight on the global movement to end the trafficking of minors by successfully distributing this film to a worldwide audience.”
Verástegui noted in the interview that “We are against Goliath. We are like the little David against Goliath.”
On ticket sales, Caviezel stated, “We’re outselling ‘Indiana Jones’ right now by 25%.”
“It’s extraordinary. We are starting to add screens. But its really important that people go buy the tickets now,” Caviezel said.
Reporting from The Daily Signal:
[Caviezel] has said that “Sound of Freedom” is the best film he has done since “The Passion of the Christ.” “People aren’t buying the media like they used to,” he said, as he critiqued the way mainstream media misrepresents political narratives to the American public. “The stuff that happened [with] Hunter Biden’s laptop. Two years, you told us not true. OK, I believe you, you’re the media, you know. But then it’s true. Then for seven years, we learn that Donald Trump is a Russian spy, well thank you media for telling us. Durham report drops, he’s not a Russian spy … the public is going, ‘Mmmm no. You don’t have the power you used to.’”
