First trailer for Avicii documentary has dropped revealing details of his death
Fans of the late DJ will get to see him perform once more from the comfort of their own homes.
Netflix have released an official trailer for the new documentary on the late DJ Avicii.
Sharing the news on Twitter, Netflix wrote: “From small clubs to the world’s biggest stages – Avicii took the world by storm with Levels.
“Discover Tim Bergling’s story and see where it all began in the documentary Avicii – I’m Tim, coming to Netflix 31 December!”
In 2018, Avicii took his own life and stunned his fans all over the world.
Back in 2011 the DJ, real name Tim Bergling, shot to fame with notable tracks like ‘Levels’, so his death came as quite a massive shock to his fans who expected the artist to continue to make music for many more years.
Bergling was 28 at the time of his death and had been battling his addiction with pain killers as well as other mental health issues.
At the height of his popularity, Avicii had a more than busy schedule and reportedly over six years committed to doing 800 shows.
Detailing the film, Netflix wrote: “This is the unlikely story of Tim Bergling, a shy and insecure boy who, without realizing it, suddenly created one of the world’s most loved artists – Avicii.
“Through unique home movies and a huge private archive, we get to follow Tim on a winding journey through life – from the very first breath at the maternity ward in Stockholm in 1989 to the tragic end in Oman in 2018.
“This is a film where Tim himself is the narrator and he shares his inner self in a way we haven’t heard before. Through himself and everyone close to him – family, artist colleagues and best friends – we get to know Tim – the boy behind Avicii – for the first time.”
At one point in Avicii’s life he admitted to being overwhelmed and confessed that he was ‘happier’ before becoming famous for his music.
In the documentary titled Avicii: I’m Tim, the two hour-long film sees the late DJ reflect on his life and fame.
“I was a lot happier before I was famous than after I was famous. I started feeling very unhappy,” Avicii says, as per Mail Online.
“I was on autopilot mode. I started really f***ing wondering why I was feeling like this. I had been acting away because this is how you’re supposed to be acting.”
Avicii continued: “I think I didn’t give myself enough time to figure out if there was something I wanted to change.”
