in medias res

When a story starts in medias res, it begins in the middle of the action without any introduction or explanation.

1. The movie started in medias res with the main character already in the middle of a car chase.

2. The book began in medias res with the protagonist waking up in a strange place with no memory of how they got there.

These examples show how a story can start in the middle of the action without any explanation. The audience or reader is thrown into the story without any background information, and they have to piece together what is happening as the story progresses.

If we desire respect for the law, we must first make the law respectable.
