Born in Toulouse, France in 1988, Jonathan studied film editing at La Fémis in Paris and started making short films whilst still a student. In 2014 he and collaborator Caroline Poggi won the Golden Bear in the Berlinale Shorts section with Tant qu’il nous reste des fusils à pompe (As Long as Shotguns Remain). Their short film Notre Héritage (Our Legacy) screened in the same section in 2016 and the two are currently working on their first feature film together.
