the.com/synopsis
The whole plot, minus the part where you actually feel anything.
means A condensed summary that gives you the shape of a story or piece of writing without the full experience of it.
from From Greek 'synopsis,' meaning 'a general view' — built from 'syn-' (together) and 'opsis' (a view, related to 'optic' and 'eye'). So literally, a seeing-everything-together: the whole landscape collapsed into one glance, which is exactly why it can show you the terrain but never the weather.
