Intimate Avicii Documentary, Footage of Final Performance Coming to Netflix

Avicii - I’m Tim, an intimate documentary about the life of the late EDM icon Avicii, is coming to Netflix, the streaming service announced in a press release.

Netflix will also premiere Avicii - My Last Show, which chronicles the DJ's final performance at Ushuaïa Ibiza back in 2016, per a press release. Ubiquitously known as one of the most virtuosic dance music producers of all-time, Avicii, whose real name was Tim Bergling died by suicide two years later at the age of 28 after grappling with mental health struggles contrived largely from a grueling tour schedule.

Examining the last vestiges of his storied career, Avicii - I’m Tim features never-before-seen footage and interviews, with Bergling himself narrating. Directed by Henrik Burman and produced by Swedish cinematographer Björn Tjärnberg and Candamo Film, the doc follows the artist "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."

In other Avicii news, a rare auction of Bergling's personal belongings recently raised over $700,000 in support of his family's efforts to advocate for suicide prevention. 267 of his items hit the auction block and all proceeds benefitted the Tim Bergling Foundation, a philanthropic organization launched in the wake of his death to provide support for young people experiencing mental health issues.

Another documentary from the Academy Award-winning filmmaker Lawrence Bender is currently in production and will feature "previously unreleased footage" recorded around the time of Avicii's discovery and rise to fame. Meanwhile, the investment firm Pophouse Entertainment is planning to develop a musical about the DJ after purchasing a majority stake in his catalog.

Avicii - I’m Tim and Avicii - My Last Show will launch globally on Netflix on December 31st, 2024.
