Why not experiment with this in your writing. Play with the perspective of a scene to see how you can alter its significance. What do you need to do to make it acutely important for one of your characters and negligible for another, and what effect does that have on the feelings of each of them? Think of it as a kind of emotional engineering. Remember, it is also a question of how close you as the writer want or are able to be to your work, because your distance (or otherwise) will have an effect on it as well.
