  Accompanied by an enchanting musical score, Marcel Marceau mimes the story of man in love with life -until a child inadvertently tramples the man's prized tiger lily. Angered, the man builds a wall around his land to isolate himself from his neighbors. A series of mishaps occur, and the man builds his wall higher and higher-only to find that his paradise has become a prison. Filmed in a 14th century village near Rome, this multiple prizewinner encourages friendly cooperation and understanding. This is a delightful tale using the mime techniques that have made him world famous, Marcel Marceau acts out this touching story about a man whose anger leads him to a life of loneliness and isolation.
