Which type of parallel narrative structure suits my story?
There are currently six sorts of parallel narrative (although hybridisation is happening all the time) and they fall conveniently into two categories: film that have time jumps and films that don't.
My book The 21st Century Screenplay provides detailed explanations and guidelines for writing conventional narrative and also the six families of parallel and nonlinear narrative structures (and their subcategories) along with information on some well-known hybrids.
