Of course as a producer we went through a couple of edits, I watched everything through you know the small screen of a laptop but when you are in a cinema, we did a viewing kasi on a bigger screen, there were so many things that you don&#x27;t notice on the small screen that you see on the big screen,&quot; he shared.</p><p>Richard also shared the brief plot of <em>Under Parallel Skies.</em> &quot;It&#x27;s about a Thai bachelor who travels to Hong Kong in search of his missing mother, so may konting family element din kami, only to meet a Filipino hotelier... and they navigate through love, heartbreak, and healing.&quot;</p><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/Cu4LBhYpXg-/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=506&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A693677.1000003815%2C%22ls%22%3A693160.3000001907%2C%22le%22%3A693168%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="567" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>&quot;What&#x27;s a better city than Hong Kong to talk about this type of cross-cultural love, cross-cultural relationship, kasi Hong Kong is a melting pot of different cultures,&quot; Richard added.</p><p>As to the release date of the film, Richard shared that it will be announced via social media soon.</p><div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2023/7/19/janella-salvador-win-metawin-to-star-in-upcoming-film-under-parallel-skies-920"><strong>READ: Janella Salvador, Win Metawin to star in upcoming film ‘Under Parallel Skies’</strong></a></div><p>&quot;<em>Under Parallel Skies</em> will be coming out very, very soon.
