The Wall tells the complicated and disturbing story of fictional Pink (Bob Geldof), a successful and enigmatic rock star who loses, little by little, contact with reality. The movie retraces the main events in Pink's life, his relationship with his mother, his rigid school days, all events punctuated with Pink Floyd's music naturally. Pink's success shows some parallel to the rise of fascism and just as Pink loses control over his public persona, he himself, through drug abuse, loses control of his mind, until he finds himself surrounded by a wall, the wall of his success and isolation. His inner search through his past illustrates his frustrating and violent quest to breaking the wall.
