Kate Winslet has said the line between reality and fiction became “blurred” as she filmed alongside her daughter, Mia Threapleton, on a new drama about mental health.

I Am Ruth, which will air on Channel 4 later this year, is an instalment of the Bafta-nominated and female-led drama anthology series I Am, created by filmmaker Dominic Savage.
