A number of the comments here seem way off the mark to me. Saying this woman is messed up & needs therapy and going on to complain that she's ugly says more about the commenter than the commented upon in my view.
I guess all documentaries are constructed in such a way as to put forward an argument, but here again, some people are complaining about hidden agendas whereas others are complaining that not enough conclusions are drawn and demanding pat psychological explanations. It seems to me that the film presents you with the facts and asks you to decide for yourself what to think about them, and that that's no bad thing.
I liked Grace by the end of the film. It's clear she has some issues and she's chosen a pretty unconventional way of working through them, but I don't think it's anyone's place to judge her. I'm glad to hear she's made some money from the documentary at least and seems to be doing OK in her new life as a computer geek. Interesting use of the word "geek" actually - now means computer buff, used to mean circus freak.
