A new big screen adventure is entertaining families this half-term holiday, with the film’s soundtrack single also inspiring positive change by supporting UK charity, Action for Children.
A beautifully animated, contemporary take on classic fairytales, “Rebellious” is now showing across UK and Irish cinemas, courtesy of UK distributor, Dazzler Media.
As part of the release, all proceeds from the soundtrack’s lead single will aid Action for Children’s work supporting children and young people. The song “Hear My Voice” is available to buy and stream now across all major digital music platforms coinciding with theatrical release.
In “Rebellious”, Mina is a rebel princess who breaks tradition by choosing her own husband, Ronan, a kind-hearted local man, and not a warrior. But before they can marry, a sorcerer kidnaps her, leading the king to declare that whoever rescues his daughter will win her hand in marriage. Ronan must summon the courage to find his true love, while Mina plans a daring escape of her own, rescuing other princesses along the way.
The catchy, pop-infused single, “Hear My Voice” echoes the inspiring message of the lead character and is performed by Grammy nominated singer, Kristal Oliver aka “Tytewriter”. Oliver has collaborated with artists such as Kanye West, Justin Timberlake and Brandy, while the track features an ensemble of world-class musicians, including the Royal Philharmonic’s principal cellist, Richard Harwood and renowned violinist Roberto Manes.
“Rebellious” producer and soundtrack composer, Sefi Carmel, CEO of Creation Entertainment and SphereTrax, said: “My team and I worked tirelessly for over two years, combining the score and sound design, to create an immersive experience that encompasses the cultural diversity of the film. As our characters come from very different backgrounds, it was only natural to call on wonderful musicians from around the globe, to take part in the creation of this soundtrack. We are truly proud to support Action for Children on the release of the single.”
Graham Davidson, CEO of Dazzler Media said, “we strive to bring quality family films to UK and Irish audiences and Rebellious is a great example of this. We love the film and believe the message of ‘Hear My Voice’ will resonate with viewers of all ages, and aligns perfectly with the great work by Action for Children.”
Alanah King, senior corporate partnerships manager at Action for Children said: “We are delighted to be receiving the proceeds from the lead single in Rebellious. Every penny raised brings us closer to ensuring that more children and young people can experience a safe and happy childhood. Together, we can build brighter futures and give children and young people the foundations they need to thrive.”
