In a parallel present, delivery man Ray Tincelli is struggling to support himself and his ailing younger brother. After a series of two-bit hustles and unsuccessful swindles, Ray takes a job in a strange new realm of the gig economy: trekking deep into the forest, pulling cable over miles of terrain to connect large, metal cubes that link together the new quantum trading market. As he gets pulled deeper into the zone, he encounters growing hostility and the threat of robot cablers, and must choose to either help his fellow workers or to get rich and get out.

Ray Tincelli trades the urban hustle for a grueling trek through dense wilderness to install cable lines for a strange new economy. This low-fi sci-fi captures the isolating friction between human survival and the relentless expansion of a digital frontier.
