Finding Vivian Maier: Heads Up

If you have Kanopy through your library or any other means, this 2013 documentary is featured. I've seen it but will watch it again:

Who is Vivian Maier? Now considered one of the 20th century's greatest street photographers, Vivian Maier was a mysterious nanny who secretly took over 100,000 photographs that went unseen during her lifetime. Since buying her work by chance at auction, amateur historian John Maloof has crusaded to put this prolific photographer in the history books. Maier's strange and riveting life are revealed through never-before-seen photographs, films, and interviews with dozens who thought they knew her.
