LYSIS FILMS is Gary Caganoff's creative vehicle of inquiry into matters of the heart and soul. Formerly known as Kaganovich Productions, LYSIS FILMS is the synthesis of life's experiences expressed in the art of film making.

Always focusing on the emotional and contentious issues of the environment and social justice, Gary's films explore individual and cultural experiences of 'sense of place'. They are very much grounded in his knowledge and experiences of Ecopsychology and Social Ecology.

For almost 20 years Gary Caganoff has made films for some of Australia's highest profiled environmental organisations, however it is his own productions that have made him known around the world. His film The Second Step on double leg amputee Warren Macdonald, won eight awards at various international film festivals, most notably winning the GRAND PRIZE at the 27th Banff Mountain Film Festival in Canada; the first Australian film ever to win this coveted award.

Gary is currently in the middle of the production of a documentary on Afghanistan with development funding provided by The Australian Film Commission.
