According to director of Amy, Asif Kapadia, producing the film itself was extremely frustrating and he wanted this anger to be evoked within the audience as well.
"People watching the film tend to feel a bit guilty," the filmmaker said. "One reading of it is that we all got into this idea that we could bully this girl, or join in laughing at her, because she wouldn’t answer back and didn’t have anyone around her who seemed to care."
"We never stopped to think about what we were doing to her. This is a girl who had a mental illness, yet every comedian, every TV host, they all did it with such ease, without even thinking. We all got carried away with it."
