The Lives of Tomaž Kajzer

"My name is Tomaž Kajzer. I am a priest. I know that today this is a strange vocation, but when you hear the call, the decision is truly simple. And final." This is what Tomaž Kajzer deeply believed until an unexpected encounter with Alenka, a widow with two children. Meeting her stirs a restlessness in him like never before. He is haunted by guilt, day and night. “Love is what gives us hope,” he tells his parishioners during mass. Yet deep inside, Kajzer feels that the call of this new love is stronger than the one many years ago, when God called him. He announces to the archbishop — his own brother — his irrevocable departure from the Church. As with every decision, this one also brings consequences.
