It is meant to tell the story in a few sentences. A synopsis is a simple one-page or one-and-a-half-page summary of a screen story. It should focus on the character arc of the protagonist. An outline is a document used by the writer to set out the basic film story. It is a tool to help keep the story on track. Treatment is an official document and often used as a sales tool. It is often a contractual step that must be completed before getting the green light to go to script.
