Bandersnatch: An interactive film

Hey everyone! My name is TJ Wolschon, I go by TJ most often and standard masculine pronouns are fine.

Bandersnatch is an interactive film on Netflix that came out only a few weeks ago. It is available to anyone who has a netflix subscription and runs on a multitude of devices. It was written by Black Mirror writer Charlie Brooker and directed by David Slade, although I'm sure many others worked on it as well. It is a very interesting experience, one that is hard to explain without spoiling it. 

Basically you control the decisions of the main character Stefan Butler, a young programmer in the 1980s. There's 150 minutes of unique footage but it can be as short as 40 minutes depending on the decisions you make. The engineers over at Netflix had to create an all new system called Branch Manager in order to accommodate the interactivity of Bandersnatch. All in all, it's a really great experience.
