Slanted roof

[Möller64]

I am going to tear down a wall on the 2nd floor and let the sloped ceiling almost go all the way down to the floor.
I basically understand what needs to be done. So correct me if I'm wrong.

* Tear down the existing wall and frame a new one a bit further out. The sloped ceiling should go down so that there is only about 40 cm left of the wall.

* Cover the new surfaces with plastic and then insulation to finish with gypsum or whatever you want as an outer surface.

Is this the correct procedure?

Grateful for an answer

Depends on whether the wall you're going to demolish is load-bearing?
If so, you need to reinforce in some way, instead of the wall.

No, it is not load-bearing like that. Of course, I will save down the posts that exist. From a construction standpoint, I am clear about everything. It's more the insulation part.
