Biography

Born in Neuilly-sur-Seine near Paris, Georges Gachot is a French and Swiss dual national filmmaker specialized on documentary film about music. He started his career working in film production for commercials and as actor and sound assistant, most notably in the Oscar winning film "Journey of hope" by Xavier Koller in 1990.

Subsequently he was commissioned by the music label Naxos and by various European TV channels to direct films that portray musicians, composers, and interpreters. In 1996 he began producing and directing his own films - in co-production with international partners like Idéale Audience (France), ARTE (France & Germany), Swiss television - that enjoyed worldwide success, distributed by Doc & Films (France), Euroarts (Berlin). Gachot received the prestigious "Prix Italia" in 2002 for his portrait of the Argentinean pianist Martha Argerich, Evening Talks and created the first of a trilogy of films about Brazilian music in 2005, "Maria Bethânia "Music is Perfume". He became a true enthusiast and specialist of Brazilian music and went on to film three more feature length documentaries there, Rio Sonata (2010), O Samba (2014) and in 2018 a road movie "Where are you, João Gilberto" that was supported by Eurimages and theatrically released in many countries worldwide.

Between 1996 and 2012 Gachot also directed five feature length documentaries about Cambodia.

Gachot's current Jazz project "Misty - Erroll Garner" will bring to a wide public to rediscover the Music and lifetime of this great pianist born and buried in Pittsburgh.
