What is "exposition"?
Exposition is the part of a story where the background information is introduced. It provides essential details about the setting, characters, and initial situation, helping the audience understand the context in which the story unfolds. Exposition often includes information about the characters' pasts, the world they inhabit, and the circumstances leading up to the main events of the plot. This foundation is crucial for setting up the narrative and allowing the audience to follow the unfolding story.
