The setting is where the story takes place

Explanation:

For example, the setting in Star Wars is a long time ago in a galaxy far far away, while the plot is Luke Skywalker learning to become a Jedi to save the galaxy.

Setting is time and place, when and where the story is, while plot is the sequence of events, what the story is.
