Gati was born and raised in Canada by Hungarian immigrants and was brought up in an artistic environment.

Her performance in Hungary's biggest hit of the 1990s, Nous ne mourrons jamais (1993) (We Never Die), which made the short list of films selected for Best Foreign Film entries for the Academy Awards, made her an extremely popular actress in eastern and central Europe.
