The eagerly-awaited music documentary, formed by Avicii’ s experiences since

phenomenal story, from his early days posting tracks online through to his global chart-topping success. Holding nothing back, Stories shows Avicii’s career in varying lights, from playing in front of 80,000 fans in his hometown in Stockholm, to having an illness that necessitated the cancellation of a year’s worth of tour dates.

Salim Mukaddam, Director of Music, BBC Worldwide said, “Avicii redefined the boundaries of contemporary dance music with his debut album. His hits have gone gold and platinum in 25 countries, but little is known about the man behind the music.

We are very excited to see the finished project later this year.”
