    Quebec City filmmaker and philosophy teacher Alexandre Isabelle envisions his short films as aphorisms. Through their poetry, he seeks to inspire existential reflections. Since 2021, his short Therefore, Socrates Is Mortal continues its tour of national and international festivals. 2024 will be the year of the release of his new short À toi les oreilles.
