It's official dude.
assasin could be considered spy if stalking and surveilance is involved
It must be Spy-ish.
It need not be someone infiltrating an enemy organization under false pretenses and gaining their confidence - being a spy.
It muts have spy-ing.
Seems like almost any espionage would qualify.
As always they are not looking for some slavish adherence to a genre.
Merely a unifying theme and label to put on the Fest and DVD which would in someway describe the showcased films.

I'm thinking
Spies - Assasins - Covert Ops - Espionage - Interrogation - Surveillance
It's pretty wide open fellas

Barry_S and Jarred are the ones who ultimately set the rules as to what qualifies. It is my understanding currently that as long as the film somehow involves some covert information gathering, you're good. It could be a dead-serious documentary on phone wiretapping. It could be a slapstick comedy. It could be a teenage see-if-she-likes-me-could-you-ask-her-no-you-ask-her type of cutesy romance thing. It could be an extramarital affair drama. It could be a corporate training film on the proper use of "secret shopper" techniques.
It does *not* have to involve governments or politics. Or guns. Or anyone saying "shaken, not stirred."
Just make sure that someone is gathering information on someone else without that someone else knowing it.

No one is that bad ass, not even someone who hasnt been imagined yet. Its just impossible, but watching people attempt will sure be enjoyable.
The mustache makes him even more bad ass.
