Climactic plot structure is when the story begins at the height of the story, meaning the climax and then progresses to tell the events before the climax and the aftermath of the climax.
Explanation:
Climactic plot structure is different from other plot structures as it begins right from the exact moment of the climax. It is also known as "<em>en media res</em>" in literary terms. It literally means, "<em>in the middle of</em>", meaning the story starts at the middle of the story. This type of plot structure requires a background story of the 'how' and 'why' of the beginning of the story. It then comes to the climax, i.e. the start of the story line, and then proceeded to give a solution or ending of the plot. Examples of such type of narrative plot structures will include "The Odyssey" by Homer, "Divine Comedy" by Dante or the movies "Slumdog Millionaire", "Thor" or even "Gandhi" and "Forest Gump". The starting of the plot shows the event that is the climax, which then moves on to explain or show how or why that happened, then moves to the future scenes, the concluding plot of the story.
