9 Dias Acordado

A well made movie about a Chrystal Meth addicted actor. The plot is interesting the main actor Eric impressively played by Jannik Schümann. The entire cast makes a good and credible impression. Particularly noteworthy is Peri Baumeister in the role of Eric's girlfriend Anja.

The film does not correspond to the stereotypical dramaturgy of drug films. No glamorous rise and no deep fall is shown. The struggles who let the main actor abuse drugs are rather commonplace. But profane as drug addiction is. Nevertheless, the plot is interesting. Probably in order to create more drop height, the conflict between Eric and Anna is dramatized a little too much, which would not have been necessary. In my opinion that takes away some credibility from the story but it is still ok. A very postitiv aspect of "9 Tage Wach" is that Plot stays away from glorifying or demonizing the drugs, but relying on the experiences of the protoganonists to speak for themselves. The tempo, the optics and mood of the film are well made. My rating is 7 stars - the film entertained me over the average.
