hair and urine samples from you.

But I guess we can forget the hair.

Man, aren't you DJ Ickarus?

I'm Ickarus.

Oh man!

I was at the Erfurt Open Air last year!

I danced my ass off!

Oh man, so cool, so...

It was so great, yeah...

Nice to have you here.

How are you feeling?

- Bad trip yesterday.

What do you mean?

That wasn't normal ecstasy.

That pill was bad. Really evil.

I have never sweated like that.

I totally felt the fear.

- Of what?.

Of like... myself.

I kept thinking

my heart was going to stop.

I saw my death.

What did your death look like?

I think Death

just stopped in to say hi.

And now? How are you feeling?

My heart is still racing.

But I feel better.

Let's see what the lab says.

I'm anxious to know what you took.

I would like to emphasize

that your stay is voluntary.

If I can't take it, I'll leave.

Right. The garden is open during the day

but the doors are locked at night.

If you want to leave the hospital,

you have to tell me.

Can I have my computer and controller?

- What kind of controller?

A thing with buttons. For making music.

For my work.

- Oh. Yes, yes.

You're welcome to work here

if you don't disturb the others.

Fine.

Then I'll stay till the results are in.

Not a day longer! - Good.

Professor Doctor Petra Paul...

"Drugs, Art and Rebellion. "

"Andreas Baader was on speed,

Aldous Huxley on LSD,

Rainer Werner Fassbinder on cocaine.

Berlin doctor, Petra Paul

assesses her time as a student

from a neurological perspective.

You're welcome to read it.

No thanks.

Very funny.

Are you worried about the gigs?

- We can cancel the gigs.

We can go into overdraft.

I am worried about you.

Don't exaggerate.

Take a look around.

The album is what's important.

It'll be super. Then a vacation.

Let's wait for the results here

and then get outta here.

What are you doing?

- I'm setting something.

Was that chick your girlfriend?

- Yep.

I'll give you a tip.

Watch out for that doctor.

She'll drive you crazy.

I'm taking you to movement therapy.

No way. I've got an album to finish.

May I hear some of your music?

It's probably better on the dance floor

than in the loony bin.

I find it very dark, almost depressive.

You mean melancholy...

Want to hear something depressive?

I want you to come to

movement therapy now. - Nope.

Stop saying no to everything, Mr. Karow.

We breathe in and close our eyes...

Michael, close your eyes.

Very calmly, try to close your eyes.

You can do it.

Very calm, Michael.

Breathe in and out and close your eyes.

Michael, stay calm.

Think of the black BMW.

Think about the black BMW.

You're not afraid, close your eyes.

And we reach for the stars...

Stretch, stretch...
