Netflix has released the documentary “Avicii – I’m Tim”, providing an intimate look into the life and career of Swedish DJ Tim Bergling, better known as Avicii.

The documentary, featuring never-before-seen footage from personal archives and home videos, tells the story of his journey from his birth in Stockholm in 1989 to his tragic death in 2018. The story is told by Avicii himself and includes deep reflections and key moments he shared, along with emotional testimonies from friends and family.

Avicii achieved worldwide fame with hits like “Levels” and “Wake Me Up,” but struggled with stress and mental health issues, which led him to stop touring in 2016. His close friend, Jesse Waits, regrets not being there in his final moments and expresses feelings of helplessness and sorrow.
