In Gadens Stemmer, Kennet shares his own life story: an unstable childhood marked by neglect and abuse that nobody believed, and the long drift that followed. He tells of a young adult life that seemed to be on track, with training as a car mechanic and later a vehicle inspector, before weekends in Copenhagen's techno scene led him into drug dealing and organised crime.
His account covers years of addiction, around seven years in prison, and repeated stays in psychiatric care, until a phone call and a near-death experience turned things around. Today he uses his story through Gadens Stemmer to show what crime and addiction do to a person, and that change is possible even when hope seems gone.
