Abstract

Pink Floyd The Wall is a British film released in 1982. Directed by Alan Parker, with script by bassist Roger Waters and animations by Gerald Scarfe. The feature film is based on the conceptual disc The Wall (1979), It is a dystopic narrative with surrealist features. Whose script is about the journey of Pink, a rock star who has to deal with several metaphorical and real walls that life has imposed on him: one present full of loneliness, drugs and a turbulent marriage.  The past marked by an overprotective mother, a father killed in the war and an oppressive school. The article makes a theoretical approach between historiography, such as Marc Ferro, Rafael Hagemeyer and Michele Lagny and cinema, especially cinematographic language and animation, such as David Bordewell, Kristin Thompson, Jacques Autont, Michel Marie, Eduardo Peñuela Cañizal, Maria Prammaggiore and Tom Wallis.
