Read more about the show below:
At a rural Arkansas factory, five coworkers discover rice, romance, Kodachrome 35mm film, and extraterrestrial activity converging in a seemingly forgotten post-Y2K landscape. Waltimore is the new hire, building back from personal tragedy. Sabrina is an energetic intern trying to keep it together. Brigham has been at Riceland for a long time now - at least that’s what his time sheet says. Management is management… Maybe. What starts as a simple 9 to 5 quickly spirals into a unique exploration of time, love, and the human condition.
