    LJUBLJANA: Slovenian national television RTV Slovenija is currently shooting in Maribor the second season of TV crime series Cases of Inspector Vrenko / Primeri inšpektorja Vrenka. The show based on the novels by Avgust Demšar has been the most successful crime series on national television in the last 20 years.

    Author of the novels Avgust Demšar, credit: RTV SlovenijaAfter the big success of the first season, which was shot in 2020, new episodes about chief inspector Martin Vrenk, who faces unusual cases, interesting characters and surprising twists, are planned.

The rest of the cast includes Katarina Čas, Pia Zemljič and Nina Ivanišin, and many others.

    “This is similar to novels. If you are successful with the first one, the expectations for the second are even higher; there is more fear that you will not succeed," author Avgust Demšar said. He is co-writing the script together with Martin Horvat.

    The 50-days shooting of the novels Evropa, Hotel Abrazzia in Obsedenosti by Avgust Demšar, which will come together under the title of Cases of Inspector Vrenko, will take place till 30 November 2022 in two slots: 35 days in the spring/summer and 15 days in the autumn of 2022.
