Hello there, this is the context:
<<the story(House of sand and fog) is filtered through alternating perspectives, the foremost of which are Behrani (Ben Kingsley), a Persian ex-pat and a former high-ranking officer under the Shah in Iran, and Kathy Lazaro (Jennifer Connelly), a severely depressed recovering alcoholic tenuously holding onto sobriety but nevertheless gradually self-destructing...>>
Although if this phrase were "is told through", It's most easy to understand, but "filter" means "to clean something by passing it through something special",so can the sentence imply that "the story is purified and therefore matured by filtering..."? Or "filter" is just suggesting "camera"?
I need your opinion. Thanks, in advance.
