Parallel

Parallel (2024) is a sci-fi thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Director Kurosh Ahari builds the film around grief — Vanessa and Alex lost their child a year ago and have retreated to a remote lake house to get away from everything. Danielle Deadwyler and Aldis Hodge play the couple; Edwin Hodge appears as Alex's brother Martel, who has been living there alone since their father went missing in the surrounding forest.

Illegal experiments have been running in those woods for years — the same ones that destroyed the father's mind. Vanessa goes in anyway, alone, and finds herself face to face with a version of herself from a parallel universe. Also armed. Also afraid. The film treats the multiverse not as spectacle but as a mechanism for grief: the gate between worlds might offer release, or it might seal shut forever. Stream Parallel (2024) online on iFILM.
