Well, that's kind of a difficult question to answer. They are similar but slightly different. Plot summaries are supposed to surmise the main events of the story and major character development.
A Theme statement on the other hand would be like analyzing the evident battle between good and evil in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings or Lucas' Star War Sage.
It deals with the underlying themes and messages the author wants to convey such as love, hate, joy, peace, religion, or whatever their theme is.
No, a plot summary and a theme statement are different aspects of a literary work. A plot summary provides a brief overview of the events that occur in the story, while a theme statement expresses the underlying message or main idea that the author is trying to convey through the narrative.
"Victory often requires personal sacrifice."
A theme statement for trust could be: "Trust is fragile yet essential for meaningful relationships and personal growth."
A theme statement for sacrifice could be: "The theme of sacrifice explores the profound impact of selflessness and giving up something valuable for the greater good, highlighting the complexities and deep moral significance of such acts in shaping characters and their relationships."
Your thesis statement should clearly state the main point of your essay and express your position on the theme you are discussing. It should also provide a roadmap for what will be covered in the essay to support your argument.
Themes and moral can be the same in the literature but their definitions are different. Theme is simply an outline, topic or a message of a plot of the literature. For example a theme can be 'A mother who would sacrifice for their children.' But as you can see, this is not a moral statement. A general theme is the main message on the entire story while sub-theme usually refers to other themes contain in the literature. Take Harry Potter for example. The general theme is 'the importance of love' as that is what the entire Harry Potter series mostly revolved on. The sub-themes are like 'battle between good and evil', 'the importance of education', 'courage is crucial in overcoming challenges'. Moral are moral statement, principles or values hidden in the literature so that readers can capture it and apply it. Example using Harry Potter again, 'Courage', 'Importance of love' (as you can see it is similar to theme), 'Loyal to friends', 'Determination' and etc. Again, you can actually use the same statement for both moral and themes because they are both messages in the literature. But it is useful to note the differences. A tip is that moral statement can be use as a theme but not all themes are moral statements. hope i helped

It should tell the what the theme is and why. You need a main idea and to approach it almost like a summary. I always like to start out " the purpose if this paper is to." This gives focus to what you are doing and keeps you on tract of your writing.
