It's 09:06 in the morning. A black car pulls up on a high concrete bridge which leads over a river. Hours later the bridge is full of police cars, their headlights illuminating the waters below, where they recover the body of a young man. Inspector Dušan starts to conduct an investigation.

Slovenian director Igor Šterk's fourth feature-length film starts out as a conventional police mystery, as Dušan investigates the mysterious suicide, only for the inspector to develop an increasingly unhealthy obsession with the case, to the point where he moves into the deceased's apartment, pries into his life, and gradually adopts his identity.

OFSAJD was the darling of Festival of Slovenian Film 2009 wrapping up nine awards, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Actor.
