O'Horten (2009)

A man retires after about 40 years as a locomotive engineer and has weird, though quite quiet, adventures over the next week or so.

He…

• sneaks into an apartment as a shortcut, only to be blackmailed by a young boy who lives there into sitting up with him until the boy falls asleep
• gets cavity-searched at an airport when he goes to meet a guy about selling his boat
• falls asleep in a sauna until the gym is locked up for the evening, at which point two skinny-dippers interrupt his solitary swim
• spends an early dawn riding with a man who insists he can drive with his eyes closed

His demeanor was always so mild that the bizarreness of his post-retirement days almost seemed commonplace. I was charmed, but I couldn’t help but feel that I’d also been on a ride with a driver who had no idea where he was going.
