Innovid and Netflix's interactive video campaign introduces several original Netflix programs including House of Cards, Bojack Horseman, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Marco Polo, and The Adventures of Puss in Boots. The interactive video presents these featured programs in a multi-layer, immersive film with narration, which introduces a single story arch while footage from the corresponding Netflix program plays.
