Welcome to the Spectrum Lounge podcast where we discuss creatives of color disrupting the game in tv, film and pop culture. In this episode we chat with actor Parker Sawyers who co-stars in the upcoming film "Monsoon." We also discuss his role as Andre Watkins in the STARZ series "P-Valley" and playing a young Barack Obama in the 2016 critically acclaimed film "Southside With You." Synopsis for "Monsoon": Kit (Henry Golding), a young British Vietnamese man, returns to his birth country for the first time in over 30 years. He was just six years old when he and his family escaped Saigon as 'boat refugees' after the Vietnam War. No longer familiar with this country and unable to speak his native language, Kit embarks on a personal journey from Saigon to Hanoi in search of a place to scatter his parents’ ashes. Along the way he reconnects with his childhood friend Lee (David Tran) and falls for Lewis (Parker Sawyers), an American whose father had fought in the war. During his travels, Kit finally starts to connect to the memories of his parents and his own roots.
