O.U.R President says 'Sound of Freedom' has sparked conversation about international sex trafficking

President of Operation Underground Railroad Matt Osborne says that the recent success of the "Sound of Freedom" movie has sparked a much needed conversation about the horrors of child sex trafficking. 

"Sound of Freedom tells the story of just one part: international sex trafficking," Osborne said on the Thursday edition of the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show. "But what we think is great is it's starting a conversation. We hope men and women go see it in the theaters, have talks with their kids about staying safe online, staying safe from online grooming and predators, and finding out what we can do in our communities."

The movie is based on the true story of Tim Ballard, a former Department of Homeland Security agent who quit his job about 10 years ago to rescue children who were victims of human- and sex-trafficking. 

Ballard later founded Operation Underground Railroad, which works with law enforcement around the world to rescue the young victims and help them heal and recover. 

The movie hit $100 million at the box office, excelling despite having a smaller budget than other movies such as “Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny” and Pixar's “Elemental."

"We just love what 'Sound of Freedom' has done over the past couple of weeks," Osborne said. "We hope it keeps rolling. I mean, Indiana Jones: down. Mission Impossible: down. This is exciting."

Former President Donald Trump held a screening of the movie Wednesday at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey where Tim Ballard, Jim Caviezel who starred in the film, and movie producer Eduardo Verástegui made an appearance. 

Multiple studios turned down offers to produce or distribute the movie. Angel Studios, also known for "The Chosen," released it on the Fourth of July.

"I hope that everyone will either go see the movie," Osborne said. "If they have, go see it a second or third time. Let's continue to take the world by storm and show a movie that Disney and some of these other studios did not want anyone to see."
