Amy is the connector of the company. Everything she creates — film, television, editorial direction, live experiences, cultural storytelling — has one aim:

Tell the truth out loud.

Push Back Productions develops work that challenges the narrative, disrupts the room, and refuses to fit into pre-approved boxes. The platforms, the films, the conversations, the experiences, the stories — they don’t ask for permission. They are the permission.

This isn’t about crafting a new identity. It’s about revealing what’s been there all along. Clear. Uncompromised. Unapologetic.

The work is honest. Sometimes uncomfortable. Always freeing.

If you’re here, you already recognize the signal
