uncaging
Opening the door
Uncaging is the act of releasing from a cage or confinement.
The term applies literally to freeing animals: The rehabilitated hawk spread its wings upon uncaging.
Figuratively, it describes liberating anything held back or restrained: the uncaging of long-suppressed emotions, the uncaging of her creative potential.
