Roger Waters: The Wall is a British concert film by Roger Waters. Directed by Waters and Sean Evans, it captures performances of Waters' live tour. It premiered in the Special Presentations section of the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival,[2] with Waters and Evans in attendance.[3] The concert design and execution draws heavily from the original concert of the same name that followed the release of the Pink Floyd album The Wall (1979).

In addition to the 90 minutes of music, the film also contains interspersed documentary and interview footage taken from a road trip in Europe, with Waters driving an old Bentley.[4] Waters is also seen reading from John Berger's introduction to Fear, the English translation of Gabriel Chevallier's novel, French: La Peur.

The audio is presented in 7.1.4-channel Dolby Atmos.[5] [6]
