## Synopsis

Grand (2018-2021) is a Russian workplace comedy series created by Dmitry Gribanov for START. Ksenia Zavgorodnaya (Mila Syvatska) is an ambitious young woman who arrives in Moscow determined to build a career in hospitality. After she is caught lying about her professional experience, she is sent to the unglamorous laundry of The Grand hotel instead of the management job she wanted. Alexey Zuenok (Konstantin Beloshapka) and the hotel's eccentric owner Lev Glebovich Fedotov (Aleksandr Lykov) anchor the wider staff around her. The engine of the series is Ksenia's restless ambition colliding with the rules of a tight-knit hotel team, so each episode turns on small crises, rivalries and misunderstandings among the staff. Spanning five seasons and more than a hundred episodes, it plays as a light, breezy ensemble sitcom with warm, cozy comic energy. Fans of Ugly Betty, Younger and Hotel Babylon will find resonance in its outsider-climbs-the-ladder comedy and affectionate workplace humor.
