The movie The Wall the story of rock singer "Pink" who is sitting
in his hotel room in Los Angeles, burnt out from the music business
and only able to perform on stage with the help of drugs. Based on
the 1979 double album The Wall" by Pink Floyd, the film begins in
Pink's youth where he is crushed by the love of his mother. Several
years later he is punished by the teachers in school because he is
starting to write poems. Slowly he begins to build a wall around
himself to be protected from the world outside. The film shows all
this in massive and epic pictures until the very end where he tears
down the wall and breaks free.

is releasing a special limited edition DVD of this landmark film.
