Playing the Hollywood maid Ermina Minkstein, Rimu brings a serious Eurotrash edge to BadTV's programming. Ermina is a graduate of the Sorbonne with degrees in astrophysics and economics, but finds herself in Beverly Hills cleaning windows and providing psych support to wobbly stars slipping into anonymity. How close is Ermina to Rimu's reality? "I'm in Montreal, where everyone used to be relatively stable. Our only problem was pedestrians getting hit by cars. But now Montreal is hot with music and flicks, so the intelligentsia think they can top Hollywood and they've jumped into entertainment with two firm feet. But then you get Hollywood's problems: Am I pretty? Am I fat? Am I unknown? Will I ever get to Hollywood? So I'm holding hands in Montreal, too. Nobody is actually about to jump off a bridge, but the drama is leaking into everyone's dreams of making it bigtime." Rimu is the Director of BadTV Montreal.
