I personally love the film "Sleep Dealer". It sounds like it touches on
all three topics.
Here is the description from Amazon:
The place: Mexico. The time: The near future. Memo Cruz has always
dreamed of leaving his tiny village and heading north to a big city
where he can work in a modern, high-tech factory. Finally, his dream
becomes a reality...and his reality becomes a nightmare! Memo finds
himself in a terrifyingly bizarre world of border walls, shanty towns,
high-tech factories, remote control drones and aqua-terrorists a world
of tomorrow that will soon be today! Winner of two prestigious awards at
the Sundance Film Festival, and nominated for both the Gotham Awards
and Independent Spirit Awards, this groundbreaking film has been praised
by critics and audiences alike.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and
distributors.
