Amy Miller is a Canadian film-maker. Previously a squatter and union organizer, she started making films in 2007. Her documentaries include Myths for Profit (2009), The Carbon Rush (2012), No Land No Food No Life (2013), Tomorrow's Power (2017) and Gaza: Health Under Siege (2018). She founded the production company Wide Open Exposure. Life Miller was arrested in 2002 for her involvement in a protest known as the Seven Year Squat.

In 2007, Miller stopped working as a union organizer and decided to make documentary films. She moved to Serbia and made short film, Outside of EUrope, before moving back to Canada in 2008. She started making documentaries and later founded the production company Wide Open Exposure. She was mentioned in a 2010 Maclean's feature on "middle aged anarchists," which profiled the activities of Seven Year Squat Participants. She was also involved in the Coalition for Justice for Adil Charkaoui, which advocated for the rights of those detained using security certificates. Miller was the subject of controversy during the 2010 G20 protests after she told journalists about the treatment of detained women by police officers. In a press conference held after she was released, Miller told journalists that she and other women had been threatened with rape and that some detained women had been sexually assaulted. In a meeting of the parliamentary Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security, Amy's testimony was referenced by Member of Parliament Maria Mourani: "She was told that they would have a lot of 'fun with her' and that she would never want to
