“Sound of Freedom,” the film directed by Eduardo Verástegui that tells the story of a DOJ agent and his fight against pedophilia and child trafficking, has been a huge success. In its premiere, the film outperformed Disney's “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” at the box office. It also received the support of important personalities such as singers Alejandro Sanz, Luis Fonsi and Jewel, as well as renowned director Mel Gibson and former President Donald Trump.

Luis Fonsi said it is the number one movie in America right now. The Puerto Rican singer emphasized that this is a real-life story and that it is one of the most powerful productions he has seen. He called on citizens to unite to put an end to child trafficking.

Meanwhile, singer Jewel not only asked her followers to go see the movie but also denounced the media outlets that are trying to politicize the film. She explained that, in her opinion, this is more than ideology and that it is about raising awareness about the situation experienced by millions of children. "It saddens me that some media is trying to politicize this movie. This is not left or right. It is about millions of kids being trafficked and no matter what your faith or creed, we need to protect all the vulnerable kids rather than fight over philosophical differences," Jewel wrote in a message accompanied by a video on Twitter.

Similar was the message of Spanish singer Alejandro Sanz, who said that ‘Sound of Freedom’ made him reflect on the current situation in the world. He cited that millions of children are victims of sex trafficking. "It is a brilliant film. Not only for the work of the actors, but also for the message. It is creating a movement to fight child trafficking in the world. It's an incredible film, it completely changes your vision of this world and opens your conscience."

Film director Mel Gibson also endorsed the film and urged fans to see it, according to the BBC. While Jim Caviezel, star of the film, recorded a video in which he insisted to citizens that they should see it: "You can send the message that God's children are not for sale."

The former president's team recalled Republicans’ efforts to address the human trafficking situation. It was also reported that Trump decided to screen the film at his golf club in New Jersey and will reportedly be accompanied by Eduardo Verástegui, Jim Caviezel and Tim Ballard.
