About this listen

 The year is 1931. The Great Depression has not only ravaged the United States, but the rest of the world as well. Davi Fosco is a twenty-two year old recent graduate from the University of Florida. He is the son of a wealthy second generation Portuguese Brazilian family, controlled by a strict, yet loving patriarch. The last thing Davi wants in life is to marry, have a family and fall under the rules of the family business. He believes being a homosexual in 1931 poses problems where moving far away from home is the only solution. In 1928, Henry Ford creates a town called Fordlandia on the Tapojós River, deep in the Amazon River Basin with the intent of producing his own supply of rubber for his automobile industry. When it becomes clear the venture is not a profitable one, Henry Ford increases his efforts of creating what he considers to be a utopian Midwestern society for the betterment of man. Davi Fosco willingly takes employment in Fordlandia, knowing the opportunity gives him an escape from the pressures of home. What he wasn’t prepared for was the adventure that came with the job. Follow Davi through the Jungle’s of Brazil as he travels up and down many of the Amazon’s tributaries in search of the knowledge of what it means to become a man in a homophobic world.
