| | trakMARX - Christiane F. (1982) |
 | | Christiane is never condemned for what she does or the choices that she makes, but, just from retelling her story, the reality of her situation is revealed and should be taken, without meaning to sound preachy, as a stark and startling lesson. |
 | | Christianes’ fate, already scarred by the break up of her family, finally becomes sealed when the love of her life, Detlev (Thomas Haustein), rejects her in favour of a new love, heroin. |
 | | The film, and Christianes’ addiction, concludes with the news of the death of another friend, Babsie (14 years old), reducing her to take, what appears to be, a fatal OD. |
