This is a Norwegian "comedy of retirement", in which longtime servants of public and private institutions listen to patronising speeches, receive their gold-plated watches and head off into life's uncertain twilight.
It's about a taciturn, pipe-smoking conformist who has driven trains between Oslo, Bergen and points north for 40 years. When he gets his silver locomotive, he faces a future in which he is no longer keeping a train, and his life, on the rails. It will be shown by Scarborough Film Society at the library on Friday.
