The old Man and the Pain in the Neck (2020)
Shortly before his 75th birthday, Wilhelm Schürmann has no desire to adapt his lifestyle even a little to suit his age and his health problems. When, after a bout of weakness, he was told to stop driving - at least for the time being - and move in with his daughter Bettina, the headstrong old man suddenly decided to run away.

Reviews
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
