The Coca-Cola Kid (1985)

Amidst the sun-scorched landscapes of Australia, an unconventional marketing maestro, Becker, once a hardy marine, now a Coca-Cola evangelist, embarks on a mission to amplify the reach of the fizzy beverage. He's confronted with a conundrum when he stumbles upon a secluded valley, an oasis in the arid Outback, untouched by the global soda titan. This peculiar land is presided over by a charming old man who brews his own eclectic soft drinks which are the lifeblood of the locals, and not a single bottle of Coca-Cola graces their hands. Known as 'The Kid,' Becker, with his unyielding persistence, manages to earn himself a tour of the old man's plant. Amidst the hissing and gurgling of homegrown soda production, they begin to discuss an unheard-of joint venture, stirring the calm valley life. However, the plot thickens as Becker finds himself entangled in an unexpected romance. His temporary secretary, a woman of enigma, who seems to share an inexplicable bond with the valley, becomes the object of his affection. As the Coca-Cola man navigates the complexities of love, corporate intrigue, and a soda war, he must find a way to balance his personal desires with his professional ambitions, all while trying to infiltrate this Coca-Cola-resistant bubble. In the heart of the Outback, 'The Coca-Cola Kid' unfolds a tale of corporate ambition, local resilience, and unexpected love, adding a dash of effervescence to the arid Australian backdrop.
