Not everyone knew the prevalence of sex trafficking until “Sound Of Freedom” came out. If you love to watch movies that inform you about the issues in today’s world, this is a movie for you.

The movie follows Tim Ballard, a former Special Agent for the Department of Homeland Security, played by Jim Caviezel. His job is to catch pedophiles, but later on he wants to help little kids that are being sex trafficked. Despite obstacles from the government, he still goes out of his way to help out the kids, by quitting his job and building his own organization. This character stands out so much because it goes to show that there are still good people out there that will go out of their way to help out people. His organization (Operation Underground Railroad) has saved thousands of innocent children’s lives.
