Emily in Paris-Emily in Paris

Emily Cooper's boss Madeline prepares to transition from the Chicago-based pharmaceutical marketing firm, the Gilbert Group, to a French fashion firm, Savoir, when she discovers that she is pregnant. The Gilbert Group offers the job to Emily, and she accepts, leaving her boyfriend back in Chicago. Emily moves to Paris despite the fact that she does not speak French. She resides on the 5th floor of an old apartment building without an elevator but with a wonderful Parisian view. Emily changes her Instagram handle from @emilycooper to @emilyinparis and begins documenting her time in Paris. Emily starts her first day of work much to the chagrin of her new co-workers, who reveal that she was only hired because of a business deal. She introduces the French, who seem very reluctant about her and her American methods, to American social media strategies. Emily accidentally tries to enter the wrong apartment and meets her very attractive neighbour, Gabriel. As Emily becomes accustomed to life in Paris, she makes countless faux-pas and her colleagues nickname her "la plouc" or "the hick". Emily meets Mindy Chen, a nanny originally from Shanghai, and they become fast friends. After Emily and her boyfriend attempt to have cybersex and the connection fails, she plugs in her vibrator and accidentally short-circuits the block's power.
