The plot of the movie is the story line
Every movie has a plot. If it didn't have a plot it would be a movie scene. Example- the movie spy kids!
The plot of The Lion King is about Simba, who is born to the future king of the Pridelands, becomes self-exiled when accused by his power-hungry uncle, Scar, that he is responsible for Mufasa's (his father) death.

The Gunpowder Plot, a failed attempt to assassinate King James I of England and blow up the House of Lords, took about a year to plan.
