In a world where everything has evolved in the worst fashion imaginable, an infinite city has taken over the entire planet, destroying oceans and forests, sucking dry all natural resources, wiping out every known species and covering every single hectare with towe blocks and multi-lane highways. A saturated, dystopian parallel world, with a corrupt, secretive building at its epicentre: a place where mediocrity, laziness and bureaucracy go hand in hand with state-subsidized thumb-twiddling; a dysfunctional place of wanton excess, feverish delirium and far-fetched adventure, where absolutely anything can happen. A place they call… The Company.

The Place: the Big City, an infinite city that has taken over the entire planet, removing the borders between nations, but not in a good way.

The Company, a world where employees are the victims of their own idle hands, facing an eternal struggle against extreme boredom, edging them towards the limits of regions unexplored, fertilizing a terrain where hobbies and social interaction flourish in an oasis where the greatest challenge is how to kill time.

The story is seen from the point of view of a public office where nobody complies with their job requirement. We identify with this scourge of humanity which unnecessarily complicates our lives, these odious people on the other side of the counter, these work-shy skivers who get a power trip from finding themselves in the most insignificant position of authority.

They are armed with a massive amount of weapons in their pursuit to kill time: joysticks, tarot cards, manicure-pedicure kits, crosswords, illegal substances, exotic aquarium fish, 5000-piece puzzles of cloudless blue skies, and so on… All means are used in the quest to destroy and render useless the common enemy: the eight-hour working day.

This socio-politico-administrative entropy acts as a chaotic magnetic field, a Bermuda triangle where people lose their health, lose their way and lose their minds. Especially the customers.

In the internal world of The Company, nothing makes sense. Procedures and applications are entered and processed in such a way that they are never completed. Nobody fully understands what it is that The Company does, or why it does it, which of course reduces work pressures: there is no reason to worry about something that cannot be understood, as no one can understand why one should worry about it.  Even the customers often become confused about what they were supposed to be doing there in the first place.
