Ma a sessantasette anni, dopo quarant'anni di onorato servizio, è giunto il momento di andare in pensione. La sua ordinata, solitaria esistenza sta per cedere il passo ad un futuro di imprevisti.

O'Horten (2007)
90 min
Odd Horton is dependable and contained: he's a train driver retiring after 40 years of service, living a simple life. His idea of adventure is to fly from one city in Norway to another. Starting on the night of his retirement dinner, Odd has a series of dislocating experiences: a boy insists that Odd sit by his bedside while he falls asleep; misadventure causes Odd to miss his last run; he witnesses an arrest; he assists an old man and makes a friend; he takes a trip with a blindfolded driver; he adopts a dog; he takes stock late one night at the roundhouse; he revisits his mother's disappointment in him. How should he live the rest of his life?
