Left Turn Productions, Inc. was established in 1996 by filmmakers Donald Pruden, Jr. and Keif Roberts. En route to their lawyers’ office to finalize the corporation, the pair was in need of a company name and found themselves waiting at a left turn signal; hence “Left Turn Productions” was born. The name also reflects their interest in progressive causes and social activism.Recently, the company has collaborated with Peter J. Haas Films on projects.
