Welcome to the Buenos Cruces, a town in a magical forest in the heart of Latin America —and the latest manufacturing location for Cantilever Inc., a multinational corporation that specializes in everything from sandals to cigarettes. But as his family settles into their new lives in the jungle, Cantilever Vice President, John C. Dulk is mysteriously absent, leaving his wife, Julie, to navigate the challenges of keeping their family, and the factory afloat in this strange and surreal setting.

“You think Cantilever matters? Cantilever is just the next factory, after the next conquistador, after the next slave ship, after the next plantation, after the next silver mine, after the next Monroe Doctrine, after the next NAFTA. After the next the next the next. And you think time stops. You think time stops here and we are all here to serve you?”
