Rock star Pink Floyd is a tortured soul. Because of his childhood, he has always tried to make meaningful emotional connections to other living creatures. That childhood includes not having a male role model with his father having been killed in the war, his overprotective mother smothering him, and an oppressive school system quashing his natural creativity. Being a rock star, he is often wanted more because of what he is than who he is. The most recent failure in that true connection to someone or something else is his marriage, when on tour, he discovers that his wife back home is cheating on him. His response is to go in the opposite direction, by building a figurative wall around him to isolate himself from the rest of the world, but not before showing graphically his feelings on different gut levels. The question becomes if he or anyone else can do anything to tear down the wall in a meaningful way.
When his wife leaves him during a tour, the rock star Pink Floyd (Bob Geldof) becomes paranoid and mad, building a wall between the world in his mind and the real world. The process has begun during his childhood and loses his father in the war, missing him as a role model. His overprotective mother and the repressive education at school help to build the insanity process. Pink brings a willing groupie back to his hotel room, only to destroy it in a violent anger once she annoys him, scaring her away. Soon he suddenly regrets building the wall and becomes a violent fascist dictator, and his soldiers proceed to attack people. He then screams stop and goes on trial in his mind for what he has done, and then he finally tears down the wall as penalty.
