The Pleasure of Being Robbed (2008)

Eléonore (Eléonore Hendricks, who is also credited alongside Mr. Safdie as writer) is an impenetrable 20-something who traipses around lower Manhattan committing random acts of theft — a purse here, a car there, even a surprise bagful of kittens — for no apparent reason. We’re given zero insight into her mind; all that’s divulged is that she’s a terrible Ping-Pong player and doesn’t know how to drive, though she picks that up rather quickly when shuttling an affected friend (played by the affected director) home to Boston in a stolen Volvo.
