The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The Last Mark is a Canadian thriller film, directed by Reem Morsi and released in 2022. The film stars Shawn Doyle as Keele, a hitman who is on his final assignment before retiring; after he and his partner Palmer's (Bryce Hodgson) successful killing of the target is witnessed by sex worker Peyton (Alexia Fast), Keele abducts her with the intention of helping her escape the country for her safety before Palmer can find and kill her. The cast also includes Jonas Chernick as Eli, a fixer Keefe enlists for help in shepherding Peyton to safety, as well as Jasmin Geljo, Josh Cruddas, Diane Johnstone and Andre Richards in supporting roles. The film was screened for distributors in the Industry Selects program of the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival, but was not made available to the general public. It premiered on video on demand platforms in the United States on March 1, 2022, although its release in Canada was delayed until April so that the film could screen as part of the Canadian Film Festival on April 1.
