“It’s great to see a film like “Sleeper Dealer” come from such a new, extremely talented and hugely ambitious filmmaker as Alex Rivera.

Here is someone unafraid to create science fiction in a Third World setting or to play with ideas about technology run amok that might be futuristic but feel frighteningly plausible. The freshness and ingenuity of this techno-thriller should spark a cult following among sci-fi fans at the very least, but the film could make inroads among cineastes, adult adventure-seekers and the Latino community as well. It took home the Dramatic Screenwriting Award at the recent Sundance festival.”*
