Odd Horten has conducted the same train route every day for such a long time that his life has become a series of comfortable rituals. But now the sixty-seven year old train conductor has to retire and his regular and solitary existence will have to face a future full of confusing questions. Will Horten ever fly in a plane? How is he going to end up in red, high-heeled shoes? Will he survive a night drive with a blind man at the steering wheel? The only thing that is clear is that Horten will get himself into absurd adventures and strange accidents. The film has been screened at Cannes and Karlovy Vary film festivals.
