Surreal brand world built around one word from @converse

A young man enters a surreal convenience store where every person, animal, and product is named 'Chuck.' After becoming increasingly confused by the repetitive branding, the store owner, Chuck, gives him a pair of red Converse Chuck Taylor sneakers. The man leaves wearing the shoes, and the video concludes by revealing it's a collaboration between Coca-Cola and Converse with the tagline 'Everyone's a Chuck.'
