By Ava Barnes
HITC explains how to claim free Sound of Freedom tickets for UK cinema screenings now that the 2023 movie has reached international audiences.
Along with the Barbenheimer phenomenon, Sound Of Freedom has become one of the biggest movie success stories of 2023, with the Alejandro Monteverde-directed American action film becoming a significant box-office success from a very modest budget of $14.5 million. It was released in the US in July and demanded headlines for a variety of reasons, but international audiences have had to wait patiently until now. With it released in the UK on Friday, September 1st 2023, here’s how to claim free Sound Of Freedom cinema tickets.
How to claim free Sound of Freedom UK cinema tickets
Angel Studios is offering audiences the chance to request free UK tickets for Sound Of Freedom courtesy of its ‘Pay It Forward’ scheme.
When the movie ends and the credits roll, there is a message from central star Jim Caviezel who explains that there is the option to ‘pay it forward’ and buy a ticket for somebody so they can see the movie.
To claim one, head to the official Angel Studios website and navigate to the ‘Can’t Afford Tickets? Claim a free ticket from someone who paid it forward or share free tickets with someone’ section.
Once you’ve clicked on this, you can request a free ticket by entering your location, selecting a date and showtime, and then following the prompts.
There are a number of UK screenings available to choose from.
‘It is a word-of-mouth film’
The Sound Of Freedom director has opened up about the success of the film during an interview with Newsweek.
“It is a word-of-mouth film,” he explained. “You’re not going to walk in the street and see a billboard [promoting it], because we don’t have the marketing resources to do that.”
He acknowledged that “The success has happened from people telling people go see this film because[…]this movie has been attacked in many ways, and the audience are the ones that came out and defended it.”
On this note, Alejandro argued that the film has been “victimized” and “bullied” by those unaware of the content of the film itself, and he feels that many have misconceptions about the narrative based on discourse in the media and online.
How many tickets!?
Over on the Angel Studios site, there is a feature that shows how many tickets are sold, with the figure currently showing 17,241,639 tickets and counting.
The goal was to sell 2,000,000 tickets, with the progress determiner noting that Sound Of Freedom has now achieved 863% of its goal.
Sound Of Freedom opens in UK theaters on Friday, September 1st 2023.
