Hello wonderful people I’m Jonathan Redavid, choreographer and aspiring film director. Born in Milan, I moved to the United States 14 years ago to pursue my dreams and bring my artistic vision to life.
My journey in the entertainment industry started very early: at just two years old I was acting in commercials, then I discovered and cultivated dance, choreography, and in recent years, filmmaking.

I’ve had the honor of working with some of the world’s greatest productions, traveling alongside internationally renowned artists, and choreographing for major films. I have always believed that art has the power to leave a deep imprint on people — not just a fleeting aesthetic memory, but an emotion, a message that endures. For me, telling stories — through movement, choreography, or direction — means creating experiences that transcend superficial beauty and resonate universally.

Cinema has become my creative home. Over the years, I’ve self-produced several choreographic videos and, in 2020, created my first short film, “SÉ – A Journey into the Subconscious”, a personal project that brought me immense satisfaction. Today, five years later, I am ready to continue that story with a second part, merging the two into a complete narrative film. An original piece, carefully crafted in every detail, capable of competing with larger productions.

To make this dream possible, I humbly ask for your support. The funds raised will cover production and post-production costs: cast and crew compensation, locations, costumes, music copyrights , professional equipment, and submissions to national and international film festivals.

This project is more than just a film for me — it is an artistic mission. I am passionate about auteur cinema, and I am ready to create a visual and sensory work that will move audiences, inspire reflection, and leave a lasting impression. With your help, I can bring this vision to life and craft a film we can all be proud of.


PLOT | SÉ.
Haunted by the collapse of his brilliant past, a forgotten pianist undergoes a poetic inner journey that culminates in a transformative Christmas Eve performance where he finally reclaims his true voice.

This is a film about memory, identity and rebirth - blending dance, theatre, and cinema into a deeply emotional journey.

I am ready to bring this personal project to life.
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your support and trust. Any size of donation would be truly appreciated.

Redavid’s style of work is strongly based on story telling. He prioritizes imagery, composition, sounds, body language, and the psychological journey between the subject and the camera, often crossing the line of realism.

He finds filmmaking the most fascinating way to express his story telling.
