Edwin Socrates is a man with a method. Quite an effective method, one might add. But it is a method that, despite its success, gets under the skin of his peers and managers at Athenia, Inc. So far under their skin that some of them will do just about anything in their efforts be rid of him. In this hilariously clever short comedy, our later day Socrates must use his “method” to fend off assaults from both HR and AI before they can escort him the way of his namesake.

Socrates in the modern corporate world, his dialectical method still driving critics crazy. Is a lateral move in a corporate framework the modern equivalent of Socrates' original sentence? You be the judge.
