She started filming videos to fight her depression. She became the first Indian woman to host American late-night.

Lilly Singh was a young Canadian woman quietly sinking into a deep depression.

In 2010, with nothing to lose, she picked up a camera as therapy.

Making people laugh pulled her out of the dark, and an audience grew around her.

As Superwoman, she turned her struggles and her culture into comedy millions related to.

She became one of the highest-paid creators on the planet, selling out tours worldwide.

But she wanted more, a stage that had never let in someone like her.

In 2019 a major American network gave her a nightly late-night talk show.

She was the first woman of Indian descent to host one in America.

The girl who filmed to survive her depression had broken open a long-shut door.
