Unlike many styles of interactive film, the action never pauses to ask the viewer to choose between A and B. The viewer can change stream at any time, and rewatch as many times as they like. This keeps the flow of the narrative, and builds tension as the film reaches its climax.

Perspective is designed to be rewatched and discussed and analysed among friends. Every single person who watches Perspective will experience it differently. They will see different plot points at different times, and will put the narrative clues together to form an idea of what is going on. This leads to exciting discussion and people sharing their experience of the film.
