Plot

“9 Days Awake”, the film adaptation of the eponymous novel by Eric Stehfest. Jannik Schümann plays Eric, a junkie who lives to party. He is addicted to the one drug that makes him feel invincible- "like Jesus and the terminator at the same time." When he is accepted to an acting school in Berlin, he tries to reconnect with his great love Anja (Peri Baumeister), change his life, and strive to be better. But numerous conflicts and issues follow him, leaving him to retreat back to his old ways as other situations escalate.
