What is a "nonlinear narrative"?

A nonlinear narrative is a storytelling structure where events are presented out of chronological order. Instead of following a straight sequence from beginning to end, the story may jump between different times, places, or perspectives. This approach can create complexity, highlight themes, or reveal information in a more dynamic way, allowing the audience to piece together the plot as they progress.
