Hi. How are you?
I'm Jonathan. I hope you're healthy and safe. Stay strong,
be courageous, and keep pushing forward.
I hope you're doing great things. If you've made it this far you're
probably on my wavelength. Let's stay alive and make some art.
Maybe together?
My film team and I are in post-production on our first feature
documentary - The Sacred & The Snake. Our film chronicles the
personal journeys of four people from Standing Rock's inception
in 2016 through the present day.
In my free time I try to be a cool uncle, good brother, and
dependable friend.
Here's to surviving a pandemic.
Much Love,
Jonathan
