The Last Day in Hamilton, Ontario (1990)
Directed by Eryk Wolfhausen
Thriller, Drama · 2h 23m
On the last day of the year in Hamilton, Ontario, a night watchman at a closed prosthetic limb factory is ordered to escort an elderly woman who claims to be his long-dead mother. As the city slowly empties and everyday routines begin to fracture in quiet, grotesque ways, the two of them wander through a landscape of half-working streetlights, silent bus routes, and strangers who measure distances with human ribs. What starts as a simple errand turns into a prolonged, almost bureaucratic confrontation with the absurd machinery of ordinary life.
