This ad makes no sense whatsoever, but maybe it's just a cultural thing... It features Brad Pitt and was directed by Wes Anderson. It was created for a Japanese cell company called SoftBank. They can afford Brad Pitt so they must be doing ok as a company...

I'm guessing the writing means something incredibly clever.
It's a homage to the films of Jacques Tati and his Monsieur Hulot character, like "Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot" and "Mon Oncle" So yeah, basically it's an American hipster director using an American movie star to make reference to the most popular movies in post WWII France to sell Japanese people credit cards.
Wow! That's quite the cultural mosaic coming together to increase personal debt. Thanks for the explanation Brent.
