The Lives of Tomaž Kajzer

After leaving his homeland, Tomaž Kajzer became one of the world’s most acclaimed choreographers. At first, it seems that his dance production The Baptism at the Savica will finally bring him recognition at home as well. But when politicians attend the preview performance, they dislike the show entirely and give an ultimatum to artistic director Šmid, who invited Kajzer: either Kajzer’s career is jeopardized, or Šmid must break off the collaboration. The manipulation of the media and the destructive power of falsehoods know no bounds. Will this be yet another confirmation that the fear of flying is a mere trifle compared to human treachery?

Tomaž Kajzer is fully committed to pushing through a much‑needed but unpopular pension reform. He does not understand political games and is on the verge of resigning. Finally, Sunday arrives, when Kajzer’s father joins him and his family for their weekly lunch. This time, however, the familiar rhythm is broken by his father’s seemingly innocent car accident. Nothing is as it seems. Is there something hidden behind such an unusual event as a traffic accident? Paranoia and obsession with his own goals overshadow the truth so strongly that Kajzer fails to see what is truly most important in life.

When the body of an 8‑year‑old girl is found, Kajzer and the entire police team strive to solve the brutal murder, which shakes him deeply. The conversation with the family of the deceased girl is painful and difficult, especially with her father. The police identify a suspect, and it seems the case is close to resolution. However, the polygraph shows nothing. Due to lack of evidence, the suspect must be released. The news reverberates publicly, as this means the perpetrator of the cruel murder is still at large. The police are back at the beginning. But when the released suspect is found dead, it seems as if fate itself has delivered punishment. Or has it?

Tomaž Kajzer is extremely successful in his work and has never experienced a true business failure in his career, which gives him the confidence to pursue a risky deal that promises great profit. His method of working is rather unusual. He regularly scans obituaries, and one for Julijan Krek catches his eye. Kajzer and his partner Sven quickly discover that the deceased left behind an exceptional property. Kajzer finds a potential buyer, convinces the deceased’s son to sell, and arranges a loan… but with the wrong person. The son is not the only heir. Julijan Krek also has an illegitimate daughter, 16‑year‑old Karolina, who can turn the entire deal upside down. How far is Kajzer willing to go to achieve his goal?
