'Plug into the new American Dream.' So after watching the typical boring Indy blowout I came across a little film on Cinemax on demand that was pretty interesting despite a one-line promo description that made it seem a little questionable. I am glad I took the leap and selected Sleep Dealer (probably should have used a different title).
The 2008 picture revolves around a future in which a young man, Memo (Luis Fernando Pena), accidentally does something that results in the death of his father, who manages the small family farm in a tiny Mexican village that has been ruined by the corrupt corporations that have taken control of fought-over water sources and dammed the river they relied upon.
