I remember a brilliant Canadian children's programme called Ramona from the late 80s where she was a child actor and I've seen her in a few other films like Last Night, Go and Existenz.

Yesterday I saw a documentary called Stories We Tell where she interviews members of her family that lead to some amazing revelations. Sounds dull, but believe me it isn't. Perhaps the best documentary film I've seen.
