Alexia Roc

Alexia Roc is a 27-year-old Quebec-Haitian screenwriter, director and artistic director based in Montreal. She particularly likes writing unique and real characters to illustrate different realities that we don't often see on screen. Her feminist activism and her Métis origins push her to speak out on subjects that are extremely dear and close to her. With a master's degree in film production at Concordia University, she is interested in different forms of feminist cinematic experiments as therapeutic means to redefine and understand experiences of abuse and trauma.

She produced and directed her social web series “Entre Parenthesis” which has been distributed by MAtv since 2021, featuring duos discussing sensitive contemporary subjects and opening dialogue on many social issues. Herlatest short film Bergen, Norway won the Tourner à tout Prix grand prize at the Festival Regard in 2023 and is showing it in several other festivals such as Fantasia, the Festival Émergence de Montréal, Pleins screens and Mutoscope de Lyon. Alexia is currently in pre-production of her next short film “Aux Garcons de Mon Age”, which is supported in production by SODEC.
