Picturehouse Entertainment and Fathom Events have acquired international and U.S. rights, respectively, to the feature-length film “Roger Waters The Wall.”
Written and directed by Roger Waters and Sean Evans, the film will show worldwide at 7:30 p.m. local time Tuesday, Sept. 29.
It premiered at the Toronto Film Festival last year. A concert film of Waters’ tour of the classic Pink Floyd album “The Wall,” it’s also a road movie of Waters’ reckoning with the past and an anti-war film.
“We were a big family on the road, 189 of us, give or take the odd Snoozy Walrus. We were happy by and large and I am really happy to welcome everyone at Fathom and Picturehouse aboard, I know, I know, mixing metaphors,” Waters says in a somewhat rambling statement.
“Where was I? Oh yeah, with your help, this coming 29th September will be the perfect way to remember, not just our loved ones, but the other guys loved ones, fallen, living, and as yet unborn,” he adds.
