Seeing More Clearly

I'm writing a screenplay and want to convey an idea: that information from personal experience shapes our individual belief and perception. What you know affects how you see your reality. Your eyes are just a lens, like that of a camera. Light enters, hits the back of the eye, where it transfers into electric impulses, that travel down your optic nerve, to the back of your brain. The external reality you see is an internal holograph manufactured in your brain. What you know already, gives meaning to what you see next.

In my story, my characters can't just talk about this idea, I have to demonstrate it through their dramatic action in a logical story. It's like solving a complex psychological puzzle, through understanding the mechanics of human behaviour. For me, it's a journey of my own enlightenment. When I solve this story puzzle, I will be more knowledgeable and my perception will be more clear, and this I like.
