(电影、小说、戏剧中的)闪回，倒叙
In a film, novel, or play, a flashback is a scene that returns to events in the past.
1. a transition (in literary or theatrical works or films) to an earlier event or scene that interrupts the normal chronological development of the story
2. an unexpected but vivid recurrence of a past experience (especially a recurrence of the effects of an hallucinogenic drug taken much earlier)
