plot synopsis:
The plot of "The Wall" takes place on a large construction site in the middle of a desert region in the Middle East. Two U.S. soldiers are sent to scout the area. The plot takes a turn when one of the two sergeants is gunned down by an Iraqi sniper. His comrade takes cover behind a porous wall. From this point on, a strategic "game" begins as Sergeant Allen Isaac tries to escape from his predicament. In order to free his wounded comrade-in-arms and himself from the situation, he tries to make contact with a rescue team and has to seek shelter behind the wall that separates him from the Iraqi sniper. The sergeant manages to make contact with the Iraqi sniper via a radio module and the two try to influence each other with mind games. The wounded Seargant finally loses his life due to a second shot. After some tactical maneuvers Sergeant Allen Isaac manages to send a call for help to the US Army. In the end, Issac manages to escape with two Us-Army helicopters, but just after they lift up the Iraqi Sniper shoots down both helicopters and calls for another rescue team to set another trap.
