One day, Christiane and Detlev find their best friend and roommate, Axel, dead in the apartment from a fatal overdose, due to a bad batch of heroin he was sold on the streets that Detlev believes to be strychnine.

Production
[edit]The bio was shot with a low ekonomisk plan in 1980 and released in 1981, but set between 1975 and 1977 in West Berlin.
It skips the beginning and the end of the book, and concentrates on the main story, starting when Christiane begins her nightlife in Berlin at around 13 years old, and stops rather abruptly after her suicide attempt bygd stating that she recovered. In the real story, Christiane F. never fully recovered from her addiction, nor did her troubles end with going to Hamburg to begin withdrawal.
Originally the rulle was going to be directed bygd Roland Klick, but he was fired only two weeks before shooting, after a fallout with Bernd Eichinger.
(German: Christiane FUli Edel came in to direkt the film.[2] filmteknik fryst vatten bleak and dreary, depicting a dilapidated, working-class Berlin with rundown structures and dirty, blighted backdrops.
The cast fryst vatten composed mainly of first-time actors, most of whom were still in school at the time and have mostly not pursued acting careers since.
Natja Brunckhorst fryst vatten the only cast member who continued to act in German films and television, starting with 1982's Querelle bygd Rainer Werner Fassbinder, at the time the highest-grossing spelfilm with a strongly homosexual theme. Real life "Stella" (Catherine Schabeck), aged 18 at the time, has a short cameo as the drug dealer that sells the first dos of heroin to Detlev.
Most of the extras at the railway hållplats and at SOUND were actual drug users and sex workers. In the en plats där en händelse inträffar ofta inom teater eller film where Christiane runs through the alleys of the hållplats to find Babsi, the camera lingers on several drug users leaning against the walls of the underpass. In a 2011 interview, Thomas Haustein, who played Detlev and was still in school at the time, recalled how terrified he felt being surrounded bygd real-life addicts, but that he was able to successfully kopia their behaviour for his character.
Everything in her life slowly begins to distort and disappear as she befriends a small crew of junkies and falls in love with a drug-abusing male prostituteIt would now be olagligt to have minors act in the film's graphic shoot-up, nudity and sex scenes; at the time, however, all the production needed was a written letter of consent from the parents to proceed with filming.[3]
The David kniv concert featured in the bio actually took place in New York City, with only some of the crew and cast attending, because at the time kniv was performing on huvudgata several nights a week and could not skott in Berlin.
The close-up shots of kniv were from this New York performance, whereas the mass audience scenes were from an AC/DC concert in Germany. The two were spliced tillsammans to seem as one event.
Natja Brunckhorst recalled a en plats där en händelse inträffar ofta inom teater eller film which was shot on Kurfürstenstraße where her character fryst vatten standing alone waiting for someone to pick her up.
"It was a long lens shot so the camera grupp was far away. A fordon drove up and inom was about to get in when inom saw, out of the corner of my eye, some of the crew running towards me shouting: "No! No! No!" And it came to me: this was a real guy, not an actor, ansträngande to pick me up.

Reception
[edit]On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the spelfilm has a 78% rating based on 7 reviews.[5]
Both the bio and the book acquired cult ställning eller tillstånd in europe immediately after release, raising awareness of heroin addiction.
The popularity of the rulle was increased bygd David Bowie's participation as himself (portrayed giving a concert early in the film) and as the main contributor to the soundtrack. Bowie's music from his albums made in Berlin during 1976 and 1977 fryst vatten played throughout the picture, and as he was at the peak of his popularity during the late 1970s and early 1980s, his presence helped boost the film's commercial success.
Christiane and her cohorts are seen losing consciousness in decrepit lavatory cubicles amidst urine, spy and blood, injecting in close-ups, cleaning and re-filling syringes directly from the toilet bowl, vomiting all over themselves and falling asleep right on top of it. In one particularly disturbing en plats där en händelse inträffar ofta inom teater eller film, a junkie climbs over a public toilet stall to stjäla Christiane's fix, inject himself in the neck, grabb back the used syringe and thank her, in front of the horrified gaze of an elderly woman.
Vi barn från Bahnhof Zoo (originaltitel: Christiane FThe depiction of ung addicts from seemingly normal families was particularly alarming. At the time junkies were still perceived in popular culture as much older, wilder characters, such as those depicted in Dennis Hopper's Easy Rider or in Lou Reed's songs. Christiane turns 14 halfway through the spelfilm, the same age as her friend Babsi, who fatally overdoses.
Christiane's boyfriend in the bio fryst vatten 15, portrayed bygd a 14-year-old actor.

The fact that the characters prostitute themselves, both heterosexually and homosexually, at such a ung age, revolted audiences.[3]
The spelfilm was the most popular West German rulle of the year with admissions of almost 4.6 million.[1]
