Depeche Mode: Der bittere Kampf gegen Sucht, Tod und das eigene Schicksal

Behind the scenes of the world's biggest synth-pop band lies one of the darkest and most dramatic stories in music history. In the 1990s, Depeche Mode reached the absolute pinnacle of their success. But the price of that crown was devastating. While millions of fans filled stadiums on the Devotional Tour, the band teetered on the brink of self-destruction. This documentary reveals the unvarnished truth behind the scenes: from Dave Gahan's dramatic cardiac arrest and his bitter battle with addiction to the extreme emotional exhaustion that led to the group's near-fatal collapse. How did they survive their own fate and the bitter end that seemed inevitable? We shed light on the excesses, the internal conflicts, and the true, brutal price of global fame.
