Before I started writing the paper I had this rough framework
The structure and main points of the thesis were conceived:
I. Introduction
Background introduction: loop film as a film genre that breaks away from the traditional narrative approach.
Aim of the thesis: to analyse the narrative approach of circular cinema and its core themes.
Abstract: a summary of the research, presenting the key issues.
II. Origins of the Loop Theme in Literature and Art
The myth of Sisyphus: an artistic expression of cyclical suffering.
Translation into the cycle of events in cinema.
III. Application of time loops in film
Definition of the concept: the basic concept of the time loop.
Specific case studies:
“Run Lola Run”, “Groundhog Day”, “Source Code”.
The relationship between time loops and audience participation.
IV. Presentation and Characterisation of Spatial Loops
Definition and classification of spatial loops.
Case studies of films:
“Cruise of Terror”, “The Night the Comet Came”.
Character growth and reincarnation of fate in different time and space.
V. Causality and edifying significance of the plot cycle.
The concept and characteristics of the plot cycle.
Film cases:
“Witness”, “A Clockwork Orange”.
Endings and new beginnings.
VI. Impact of circular narrative structure on the film industry

Circular Narrative as a Response to Complex Storytelling.
VII. Conclusion

This structure ensures that an in-depth exploration of circular cinema is developed progressively throughout the essay, while maintaining logical clarity and consistency of argument.
