Underachieving liberal arts majors with dreams of stardom can finally see themselves represented on the silver screen. Jake Myers and Geoff Bakken have built a world scarily familiar to anyone that has spent time in a bland glass tower in the trendiest neighborhood in town where 'work-life balance' is just a buzzword. Just as the Aliens of They Live! wanted us to Consume, Kombucha’s chief villain preaches its flavorful fermentations as the key to a higher plane of existence-as-productivity. Kombucha gives the anti-capitalists among us a modern fear for a modern age and will make anyone else wary of grabbing that mysterious bottle out of the office fridge.” | |||
