BERLIN CALLING

According to Ickarus, drugs help him relax. It put him in a better mood and it inspire him with his music. His fans take drugs because it makes them enjoy the music in a better way. They take it when they go to parties. The subculture Ickarus belongs to focuses on drugs because that the way people from this subculture relax and taking drugs is necessary for them to enjoy life. The kind of music they listen to is also very loud so it may trigger their need to rely on drugs to enjoy the music even though they are not aware of that.

In my home culture, some young people take drugs to relax and because they believe it is the way they should behave. Young people in my culture also listen to the kind of music Ickarus creates.

I found the film interesting because it portrayed how destructive consuming drugs is. I did not like the music in the film because it really is too loud. Even though I could not understand why Ickarus was attracted to drugs, it was intriguing to see how he eventually stopped consuming drugs even though he was not under medication. It showed that he had a strong will to pursue his musical career.
