Sleep Dealer
Crossing the border just got easier. Plug into the new American dream.
Directed by Alex Rivera
Produced by Likely Story, Starlight Film Finance
A cerebral sci-fi thriller that uses virtual labor and digital networks as a lens to explore exploitation, isolation, and the human need for authentic connection in a militarized, resource-scarce world.
Set in a near-future, militarized world marked by closed borders, virtual labor and a global digital network that joins minds and experiences, three strangers risk their lives to connect with each other and break the barriers of technology.
