Spanglish Movies Presents Tim Ballard’s Hidden War, Extending Sound of Freedom’s Impact, Exclusively in Theaters Starting November 14

MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / October 20, 2025 / Spanglish Movies is honored to distribute Hidden War, a feature film starring Tim Ballard, the dedicated operative who inspired Sound of Freedom. The film premieres in U.S. theaters on November 14, sharing a story of courage and successful child rescues during Ukraine’s conflict.

We extend our deepest gratitude to Tim Ballard and his team for their selfless work in protecting vulnerable children. Sound of Freedom, which Ballard inspired, earned $251 million worldwide, including $184 million domestically, and became one of 2023’s top independent films.

Hidden War documents Ballard’s mission to safeguard orphans targeted by trafficking networks in war zones. With determination and limited resources, his team rescued children and exposed connections to operations in Mexico City and Ecuador, including a site in Canoa.

Around the world, efforts to protect 40.3 million people from modern slavery continue, with children in conflict areas making up nearly 30 percent of cases. Hidden War celebrates these protections through real footage, testimonies, and scenes from the front lines, showing how lives are saved with faith and resolve.

"A child’s innocence knows no borders, no political ideologies, no religion. It is simply a heart that deserves protection from horror and an embrace of hope," said Ballard.

"This is not just a movie. It is a call to awareness, to act, and to protect those who cannot defend themselves," Ballard added.

Gustavo R. Aparicio, CEO of Spanglish Movies, expressed: "We are grateful to partner with Tim Ballard on Hidden War. This film reminds us that protecting children unites us all, beyond politics, as a shared commitment to their safety."

Audiences across the U.S. are invited to theaters starting November 14 to support this vital message of child protection. Tickets are available now.

"HIDDEN WAR – Children trapped in war. One man is determined to save them."

Revolutionary platform from WebHealth Network combines clinical intelligence, patient engagement, and lead generation for healthcare professionals.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / October 20, 2025 / WebHealthAI, one of North America’s fastest-growing AI-driven healthcare platforms, announced the launch of Doctor Chat, a groundbreaking tool redefining how healthcare professionals access information and connect with patients.

Built on advanced conversational AI, Doctor Chat enables doctors, nurses, and clinicians instant access to medically validated information that supports clinical judgment, streamlines administrative workflows, and enhances decision-making.

What truly differentiates WebHealthAI from standard AI systems is its ability to generate business for healthcare providers. Doctor Chat functions as a lead-generation engine, allowing physicians to receive referrals and appointment requests directly through the platform, bridging the gap between clinical insight and patient acquisition.

Developed by WebHealth Network, which maintains a verified directory of over 7 million U.S. healthcare professionals across 30 leading healthcare websites, WebHealthAI builds on a strong foundation of trust and innovation. Over 500 pharmaceutical brands use WebHealth Network to reach doctors, nurses, and patients by specialty and disease area, making it one of the largest healthcare advertising platforms in the United States.

On the consumer side, WebHealthAI Chat gives users quick, trustworthy medical information and one-click access to schedule appointments with doctors or clinics within their insurance network and nearby, making healthcare more connected and accessible than ever before.

With over 2.4 million registered users and growing by 500 users daily, WebHealthAI is rapidly becoming one of the largest digital ecosystems linking patients and providers. By 2026, 40% of digital advertising will be AI-powered, cementing WebHealthAI’s leadership in this transformation.

Earlier this month, WebHealth Network’s CEO and Founder spoke on a panel at Canaccord Genuity’s Pharma Commercialization and Marketing Conference in New York City, emphasizing how precision, relevance, and measurable value are redefining AI’s impact in healthcare.

On October 20, at HLTH USA in Las Vegas, journalists will get their first look at WebHealthAI’s Doctor Chat, showcasing how the platform helps providers expand their reach, attract new patients, and build lasting relationships through verified, intelligent engagement.

As adoption accelerates, WebHealthAI is establishing the new era of digital healthcare, one defined by intelligent insights, trusted networks, and seamless human-AI collaboration.
