A dream sequence is a technique used in storytelling, particularly in television and film, to set apart a brief interlude from the main story. The interlude may consist of a flashback, a fantasy, a vision, a dream, or some other element. It is normally apart in time or space from the main story, or contrary to the continuity of the main story. Many writers and critics look down on dream sequences as a cheap way to explain a character's motives without actually integrating them into the plot.
Audio or visual elements, such as distinctive music or coloration, are frequently used to signify the beginning and end of a dream sequence.
