Circular Structure

A circular plot is a non-linear plot that progresses more or less chronologically and ends with its protagonist returning to a situation similar to the one at the beginning of the story.

These Kind Of movie structure are used to showcase a loop or paradox timeline, where the movie can't have a new end rather than circling towards the start of the story again & again.
Circular narratives often utilize flashback and dream sequences to create a sense of Circular structure. Circular narratives can also conclude with the same theme or subject matter that opened the piece.
