Author of numerous documentary and experimental films and trained director, Geoffrey Lachassagne has lived in France, the United States, and the South Pacific. In his films, he provides a platform for forgotten, buried, and untold stories, highlighting the power of the myths we tell ourselves.

In Apocryphal County (2023), he bestows real presence upon the county of Yoknapatawpha, wholly invented by William Faulkner, emphasizing reality within the imagined by overlaying it with true geography.

In La Capture (2014), he explores the world of writer Pierre Bergounioux, inviting him on an entomological hunt that transforms into a philosophical portrait of an incomparable man.

His documentary essay Caledonia (2021) encounters today's New Caledonia, still driven by a dream of decolonization but struggling to be heard.

Between history and legend, Geoffrey Lachassagne paints a portrait of a population with multiple identities and documents the deconstruction of a myth, revealing a far more complex reality.
