Volodymyr Zelenskyy stars as a history teacher whose rant about the shameful state of Ukrainian politics goes viral, resulting in his sudden rise to fame and an upset victory in the presidential election. Zelenskyy is dragged through the rigmarole of being a world leader but fundamentally is a good person. This TV sitcom was created and produced by Zelenskyy before he took office as President of Ukraine. -See Trailer
