6. P.O.V.
Perception is a powerful force. It can sway us to create or to destroy. To enhance or inhibit. To dream and dare or to sit in judgement. We rely on our own perceptions to decide which road to walk down, which path in life to follow. Where do they originate? What influences me one way and you another? Can we look for clues that point us to the origin of these conclusions? How these judgements were formed? What evidence strengthened our resolve? Was it something in particular, or rather, someone? P.O.V. explores these questions by following two characters on a journey through influence, culture, exposure and perspective – telling the same story, from two points of view.
