The film explores with satirical black humor some absurd aspects of the Dominican Republic - Central America Free Trade Agreement (DR-CAFTA); such as the inclusion of war weapons as objects of commerce for Costa Rica, a country without an army, or the incorporation of Central American undersea resources as part of the United States’ definition of territory.

Costa Rica, Inc. was written and directed by Pablo Ortega (1971), a philosophy professor at the Universidad de Costa Rica and a graduate from the Escuela Internacional de Cine de San Antonio de los Baños, Cuba (EICTV).
