SYNOPSIS:In a small town lives a local weirdo called Janko Žonta. His peculiarity is that he visits the local police station once a month and reports that he has committed a murder. His reports are made up and everyone in the station know that, but they still have to investigate the case everytime he reports it. One evening, right before the shift of officer Damjan ends, Janko visits the police station again and reports a murder. Damjan handles his report routinely and then escorts Janko to the supposed crime scene, more than sure that the body – as usual, will not be there. But once he enters the apartment, he is completely astonished by the sight. This time there really is a body in the room.
