The Wall

The Wall primarily elicits intense Anxiety and Anticipation, characteristic of its thriller genre, as the audience is kept on edge by the unseen sniper and the dire situation of the protagonists. Fear is a dominant emotion, stemming from the constant threat and vulnerability. The drama elements contribute significantly to Sadness and Empathy, as viewers connect with the wounded and isolated soldiers facing a grim reality. While action is present, it manifests more as tension and suspense rather than high excitement, leading to a sense of Melancholy and Curiosity about the outcome of the deadly standoff.
