F20

Filip lives alone in a prefab apartment in Zagreb, plays first-person shooter games on his game console and orders pizza twice a day. Martina, student and daughter of the pizza chef, delivers the pizza to him. She begins an affair with the solitary gamer. Out of frustration about Martina's rude father, they steal his savings and run away together. But Martina doesn't realise that Filip is increasingly confusing real life with that of his games, and she unwittingly becomes the accomplice in a bloody rampage.

Arsen Anton Ostojić, an old friend of the FFC for many years, is now making his first foray into genre cinema with F20. His fourth feature film, which is also his first one produced independently, stands out with a committed young cast and well-considered changes in the rhythm of the film that attempts to fathom the reasons behind the medical condition of "F20" – schizophrenia – and a young man intent on killing.
