Gus is the leader and creator of an unpopular rock band. He is irresponsible, a bit clumsy and likes to let things go. He is often visited by all kinds of anxious and depressive thoughts, but he is afraid of them too much to let them settle in his head—that's why he prefers to take drugs at once and forget about everything. He's an addict, and is well aware of the damage he's doing to his health, but he'll never quit using. He longs for fame and public recognition, but he doesn't succeed.
