That image alone looks like it’s from a movie that would be right up my alley, so where’s that from?
That's Black Mirror S01E02 - Fifteen Million Merits. It's on Netflix.
If you haven't seen that Series, give it a try. Also it's an anthology, so you can usually watch any episode in any order without needing the other episodes (at least as far as I have watched it).
Every episode is usually its own story in its own universe and depicts a not-very-far-in-the-future dystopia that (ab)uses media and technology and extrapolates from our current social issues.
This is largely true but it's worth noting that they're frequently in the same universe with a lot of them referencing each other in subtle ways. It's neat.
But yeah you can start anywhere and not be lost.
This is one of my favourite episodes from the series.

Note that many people find S01E01 off-putting in a way different from the rest of the series. Up to you where you start, but if you start with the first episode I recommend watching at least two before judging.
As others have said, Black Mirror. In this one specifically, the walls become ads, and if you close your eyes, the ads pause until you open them again.
