Adapted by Millard Lampell from his own 1960 Broadway play, which was inspired by John Hersey's 1950 novel, The Wall tells of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising of April 1943. The story is told through the eyes of Warsaw Jew Dolek Benson (Tom Conti) who is a passive observer of the atrocities all around him until he learns the truth about the Nazi's "resettlement" program. Rachel Roberts, cast as Regina Kowalski, a former schoolteacher, made her final appearance in this film. Filmed on location in Sosnowiec, Poland, and first telecast February 16, 1982, The Wall earned a Peabody Award the following year.
