Netflix has released the trailer for Avicii – I’m Tim, an intimate documentary tracing the life and career of the late Tim Bergling.
Directed by Henrik Burman, the film delves into Avicii’s meteoric rise, offering viewers an unprecedented glimpse into his creative process and the whirlwind trajectory that followed the release of his 2011 breakout hit, “Levels.” The trailer features his reflections on the moment his career skyrocketed, recounting how he went from playing small clubs to amphitheaters in a series of steps, each seemingly shorter than the last.
The hits may have been prolific, but the story behind them was achingly human. Through never-before-seen footage and interviews with family, friends and collaborators, the heart-wrenching documentary illuminates the man behind the music, examining not only his creative genius but also the personal cost of relentless touring and global stardom.
Narrated in part by Bergling himself, Netflix is set to release the film in tandem with Avicii – My Last Show, which revisits the night he graced the stage of Ibiza’s storied Ushuaïa club for what would be his final performance. Less than two years later, he tragically died by suicide.
Both documentaries are scheduled to be released December 31st, 2024 on Netflix. Watch the trailer for Avicii – I’m Tim below.
