Detour(2008)

Detour is an action film following Law, a man seeking an apartment rental who strikes an unusual bargain with his prospective landlord. In exchange for a reduced deposit, Law agrees to remove a squatter camping outside the building. What begins as a straightforward task spirals into unexpected complications as Law confronts the tenant and discovers the situation is far more complex than a simple eviction. The film blends humor with tension as Law navigates the moral ambiguities of his agreement, caught between his need for affordable housing and the human reality of the person he's been asked to displace. Detour explores themes of desperation, compromise, and the messy consequences of taking shortcuts.
