A sequel to the most successful Ethiopian film of all-time, Theodros Teshome's Kezkaza Welafen (2003). Starring Teshome himself as Ali, a cop trying to catch a serial rapist-killer, whilst in a long-term relationship with Joanna (Martha Adugna). Like the first movie, Fiker Siferd deals with a kind of horrifying, anxiety-ridding issue facing modern Ethiopians: violence against women.
Set in the Sidist Kilo campus of Addis Ababa University, Kezkaza Welafen directly addresses the social tensions of everyday life for Ethiopian university students with the dangers of HIV/AIDS as its central theme. It follows the story of the female protagonist Selam, a promising university student and advocate for the prevention of HIV/AIDS who secretly believes she too is living with the disease.

While the original film focused on a young man (Ephrem) who joins a secret group called the "FBI" and navigates a romantic dilemma with a woman named Afyam, FBI 2 escalates the physical comedy and situational humor. The story follows the main characters through a series of misunderstandings and amateur "espionage" missions, often parodying tropes found in Hollywood action films but set within the local context of Addis Ababa.
