Netflix has recently unveiled a look at its upcoming Choose Love show, which is its inaugural interactive romantic comedy expereince. The film is 77 minutes long and allows viewers to choose their own adventure, which has been done by the streaming giant before.
It follows Cami Conway, who is a recording engineer who has her dream job and a healthy relationship with her boyfriend Paul. She feels like something is missing and the viewers are able to embark on this adventure alongside her. She's faced with many challenges, some trivial and some life-changing -- meeting temptations, reconnecting with an ex, and more.
Netflix explains in the synopsis that "Cami feels like she’s missing out on life, but she isn’t quite sure how. Maybe she’s afraid of settling down for good with her boyfriend, Paul. Or perhaps she regrets abandoning the singing career she’d always dreamed of. What if Paul isn’t meant to be her forever? What if Rex, the Brit musician, is? And what about Jack, the proverbial ‘one who got away,’ who’s now suddenly back in the picture?"
