According to The Child Advocacy Center of Lapeer County, an estimated two million children are abused in the global sex trafficking trade annually.
Save the Children reported girls are twice as likely to become victims of human trafficking and they are more likely to be sex trafficked.
During a recent interview on Bannonās War Room, lead actor Jim caviezel noted that āSound of freedomā was made to āput the lightā on the severity of the situation and the need for more intervention as well as prevention methods.
He also noted āSound of freedomā was created to compete with other releases.
He stated, āThis is an action-adventure. This is āTaken.ā Itās not a documentary.ā
Media executive and former Trump aide Steve Bannon said Angel studios took their premiere to Washington D.C. to āgenerate a movement throughout the countryā and ārattle some cages.ā
In addition, Angel studios live-streamed an interview with Caviezel on Twitter Wednesday evening, where the actor discussed the border crisis.
He said, āOur south border is wide open and theyāre trafficking children and doing far worse things that you canāt even imagine.ā
āSound of freedomā is being promoted with a goal to sell two million tickets on opening weekend in order to represent the two million children who are estimated to be sex trafficked annually.
In order to drive home the nature of the content involved, Caviezel said the theme of the film is, āThat Godās children are no longer for sale.ā
