In addition, Wallfisch and Varèse Sarabande Records have announced they’ll each be donating a portion of the Hours soundtrack sales and royalities to Paul Walker’s non-profit organization, Reach Out WorldWide. The Hours soundtrack will be available on December 17, 2013.
Info on Reach Out WorldWide: “Reach Out WorldWide (ROWW)—consisting of skilled volunteers—is a non-profit registered 501(c)(3) organization. While part of a relief team responding to the massive earthquakes that devastated Haiti on January 12, 2010, actor/producer Paul Walker saw a gap between the availability of skilled resources and the requirement for such personnel in post-disaster situations. Following the trip he contacted a group of his friends to assist him in forming ROWW with the purpose of filling this unmet need.”
The Hours Plot:
The film centers on Nolan Hayes who arrives at a New Orleans hospital with his pregnant wife Abigail, having gone into early labor. What should be one of the happiest days of Nolan’s life quickly spirals out of control when the birth goes tragically wrong and Hurricane Katrina ravages the hospital, forcing an evacuation.
Told to stay with his child, who is on a ventilator, and await transfer by ambulance, Nolan and his newborn are soon cut off from the world by power outages and rising flood waters. When no one returns to help, Nolan faces one life-and-death decision after another, fighting to keep his daughter alive, as minute-by-agonizing minute passes, becoming unimaginable hours.
