Gilles de Maistre (born 8 May 1960) is a French filmmaker, journalist, and actor who was nominated for a César Award.

He began by producing reports and documentaries for television, notably for Sygma Télévision and the CAPA agency.

He travels around the world to denounce, alert and inform regarding wars, famines, guerrillas, homelessness, violence or natural disasters.

In order to manage his own films, in 1990 he founded his first production house, Tetra Media, and became director-producer.

He is a half-brother of Patrice de Maistre and is a grand-nephew of the director René Clément.
