Bron Media Corp.'s genre label The Realm will produce the sci-fi thriller PARALLEL in association with Creative Wealth Media. The film, to be directed by Isaac Ezban from a screenplay by Scott Blaszak, will begin production mid-November in Vancouver.

In PARALLEL, a group of friends stumble upon a mirror that serves as a portal to a "multiverse", but soon discover that importing knowledge from the other side in order to better their lives brings increasingly dangerous consequences.

PARALLEL will be produced by Bron's Garrick Dion and Matthias Mellinghaus. Bron's CEO Aaron L. Gilbert, Creative Wealth's Jason Cloth, Andy Pollack and Paul Tennyson, along with John Zaozirny, are executive producers.

PARALLEL marks the English language debut of director Isaac Ezban, whose previous credits include two award winning films The Incident and The Similars, both of which played at top festivals around the world and received international distribution. Ezban is repped by Paradigm, Good Fear Film + Mgmt and attorney Michael Schenkman. PARALLEL marks the feature debut for screenwriter Scott Blaszak, who is repped by John Zaozirny/Bellevue Productions.

WME Global is representing rights for PARALLEL.
