Mouse move over video element: Makes it difficult to press play

I have a video element in a container that slightly rotates in 3d when the mouse moves over the component. However, I am not able to successfully click on the play button with ease.

I cannot pinpoint if it is a z-index issue, container/viewport size issue or what have you. Any help is appreciated.
