Surrounded by painfully cheerful co-workers, Bari is deeply cynical and woefully underemployed working at a small-town fulfillment center. After an unexpected and explainable turn of events, Bari finds herself on an enlightening new path. When she meets Mike, a man who makes art out of garbage, it's Bari's turn to pull another out of the darkness. |
