Lina Roessler (born 1 January 1985) is a Canadian actress, director, writer and producer.

[1] Roessler wrote a collection of 50 short stories and sent them to a Montreal publishing house.

She then turned one of the stories into a short screenplay and shot that film in Los Angeles during pilot season.

After that film won a prize at its first festival in Rhode Island,[citation needed] she directed several short films before making her feature-length debut, Best Sellers,[3] which stars Michael Caine and Aubrey Plaza.

[6] Jerusalem Post was less favourable and wrote that film "ends up rehashing clichés on all fronts".
