‘Sleep Dealer’ is a Sundance award-winning cyberpunk of the borderlands.

Memo Cruz (Luis Fernando Peña) is a young man in near-future Mexico. When his family is victim of a misguided drone attack, he finds himself with no option but to head north, towards the U.S./Mexico border, to find work. But migrant workers cannot cross this new world border. Instead, Memo enters a 'sleep dealer' - a networked factory that digitally connects workers in the Global South to robot laborers in the north... A new American dream / nightmare.

The Los Angeles Times write “Adventurous, ambitious and ingeniously futuristic, "Sleep Dealer" is a welcome surprise. It combines visually arresting science fiction done on a budget with a strong sense of social commentary in a way that few films attempt, let alone achieve.“
