    DOLL KILLER | Ep#7 Djaka Souaré | Rewrite The Script

    What happens when you realize you're playing a part in someone else's story… and decide to rewrite the script? In this episode of Doll Killer, I sit down with actress and filmmaker Djaka Souaré. Her latest film, Cut Me If You Can, is a horror-comedy with a wicked twist: two characters trapped in a slasher movie realize the roles they've been assigned and decide to break the rules. And believe me, it has some bite! But beyond the film, I'm interested in the woman behind the roles. The stories that shape us. The expectations that define us. And the freedom to step outside the boxes others create for us. Because sometimes, rewriting the script isn't just about what happens on screen. It's about who gets to decide what part we play in life. Welcome to the Doll Killer Podcast | Stories, Conversations, and a Rebellion for Change. I'm not a doll. I don't play small. Don't box me in. I own my voice. ✨ CONNECT WITH DJAKA SOUARÉ 🌐 Website: https://www.djakasouare.com 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/djakasouare1/ ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Djakasouare 🎬 CUT ME IF YOU CAN A horror-comedy that rewrites the rules of the slasher genre. Stuck in the loop of a slasher, two stereotyped Black characters decide to f*** up the script… but the film has other plans. The film explores racial stereotypes, the male gaze, disposable minority characters, and an entertainment industry trapped in repetitive storytelling. 🎃 HALLOWEEN RELEASE — OCTOBER 31 Following its release in Europe and the UK, Cut Me If You Can is coming to audiences worldwide for FREE this Halloween on Youtube! ▶️ https://youtu.be/kXilF1FPBV4?si=vWKKyF7BEeWyL5yx 🎟️ SPECIAL SCREENINGS + Q&A 📍 NYC — Thursday, October 29 | Stuart Cinema & Cafe 📍 New Orleans — Saturday, November 7 | The Zeitgeist (FREE) 📍 Los Angeles — Saturday, November 21 | Los Feliz 3 FOLLOW CUT ME IF YOU CAN 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cutmeifyoucanmovie/ ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@cutmeifyoucanmovie 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cutmeifyoucanmovie FILM CREDITS Writers & Directors: Nicolas Polixene, Sylvain Loubet Writer: Jean-Jerome Loubet Cast:Djaka Souaré, Anthony Lalor, Diane Foster, Marshall Fox Ways to support the DOLL KILLER Podcast Wear the Doll Killer Rebellion : https://dollkiller-shop.fourthwall.com Connect with Cecile Delepière to become a favored sponsor : https://www.instagram.com/cecile.delepiere/ #DollKiller #DjakaSouare #CutMeIfYouCan #RewriteTheScript #WomenInFilm Hosted on Acast.

    DOLL KILLER | Join the rebellion

    DOLL KILLER, the podcast is for the women AND men who’ve lived inside cages. Cages built by families, by society, or by their own fears. It is for those who were told to be quiet, to be good, to be small. For the rebels, the truth-tellers, the survivors, and the rule-breakers. It is for everyone ready to smash the box that was never theirs to begin with. Doll killer is about empowerment, across gender, generations and culture —but not the cliché kind.  We’re talking real, raw, sometimes uncomfortable conversations about: Smashing the Box — break free from stereotypes, limitations, and outdated narratives.Taking Up Space — own your power, your presence, and your place in the world without apology.Reclaiming Your Voice — speak truth, amplify stories, and refuse to be silenced. We’ll laugh, we’ll cry, and we’ll call out the bullsh*t along the way. In each episode, I will have •A powerful guest who’s smashed their own dollhouse  •Questions that go deeper than the surface. •A quick-fire round that reveals the rebellious side of our guests. •And always—our signature question: What dollhouse are you smashing today? So “If you’ve ever felt boxed in, silenced, or underestimated—this show is for you. Subscribe now, share this with the people in your life who are ready to break free, and join the rebellion. My name is Cécile Delepière. I am a filmmaker and storyteller—but most importantly, je suis Doll Killer. Welcome to Doll Killer Podcast! Follow us on Instagram And Youtube Hosted on Acast.
