Very cool. I didn't see that winning save on the fourth and fifth move.

The only move seems to be f3, because black is threatning to play the line:
1. ... f3
2. e3 f4!
3. exf4 e3
and black wins. f3 is the only move.

Excellent position. Where did you find it?
1. Kc6 Kb4 2. Kd5 Kc3 3. Ke5 Kd2 4. Kxf4! Kxe2 5. Kxf5 =
(1... e3 2. fxe3 fxe3 3. Kc5 =)
(1... f3 2. exf3 exf3 3. Kc5 =)

Wow, what an interesting variation! I found White's defense because I knew one was there, but I doubt I would have found it in a real game.
4.fxe3? fxe3 5.Kf4 Kd2 6.Kf3 f4 -+
4.f3? Kd2 5.Kxf4 Kxe2 -+
4.Kxf4! exf2 5.Ke3! =
