DESCRIPTION
Lost Cause is an online interactive movie which allows viewers to navigate between the perspectives of the main characters. The film lasts 15 minutes and contains three parallel storylines which play simultaneously. One large screen displays the main video while three thumbnail screens function as buttons and display each of the three character's point of view. Each characters perspective is subjective and different from another character's perspective creating ambiguity in the story. As viewers interact they piece together narrative fragments of these three characters to build their own interpretation of the story. Different choices will present varied sequences creating new interpretations of the story. By the end of the film the viewer's previous selections will determine which of the three conclusions will be played.
