Before Swankey went to his ideal place, he knew that life was not long, and he gave away many things, which was also a kind of renunciation. Perhaps because of this, when Fein returned to the village, he also gave away everything at home and continued on the road. She might be able to meet the person she wanted to meet.
The final subtitle of the movie is: Dedicated to those who have to go on the road, we will see you on the road.
It seems to be a bit obsessive, why do you have to go on the road? Going on the road is a choice, not a compulsion. If there is a compulsion, it is compelled by your own inner obsession. Fein's obsession is that he can't let go of the past. Later, her act of giving away things from her family seemed to show her reconciliation with the past. I don't know if she's going to find Dave who's become a grandpa - that's the ending I was expecting. However, the ending of the film is open-ended, and Finn just drives away from where he was and starts a new life journey.
Life is a journey, moving forward in the process of letting go, reuniting with memory, and encountering oneself.
