Decent Life, A
Ten years have passed.
And what you suspected at the end of They Call Us Misfits has become reality: Stoffe didn´t make it; during the shooting of the film he takes his final overdose of heroin. It was a hard blow for Stefan Jarl, who was making this film primarily to try to save Stoffe´s life. If They Call Us Misfits was a straightforward documentary about a generation adrift, then A Decent Life is a complex portrait of the same generation on its way to a frightening collective suicide, where the weapon is a syringe full of heroin.
