How do you investigate a crime if you don’t even know it happened?

After a serious accident on Polhograjska Grmada, Taras wakes up from a coma. Not only does he face a long-term struggle with demanding physical rehabilitation, but there is also a large memory gap in his memory. Everything is closed because of covid, ominous changes are also taking place at the General Police Station… Although Taras’ colleagues wonder if the epidemic has temporarily dealt with serious crime, the truth is darker: the real question is what is hidden from their view. In Koma, Tadej Golob sovereignly crosses the boundaries of the criminal genre and measures the socio-political pulse of the corona time.
