A troubled rock star descends into madness in the midst of his physical and social isolation from everyone.
Pink Floyd – The Wall is a 1982 British adult musical surrealist drama film directed by Alan Parker, based on Pink Floyd's eleventh studio album The Wall (1979). The screenplay was written by Pink Floyd vocalist and bassist Roger Waters. The Boomtown Rats' lead vocalist Bob Geldof made his film debut as rock star Pink, who, driven to neurosis by the pressures of stardom and traumatic events in his life, constructs an emotional and mental wall to protect himself. However, this coping mechanism eventually backfires, and Pink demands to be set free.
