Episode 113: Jacintha Charles - From Actress to Filmmaker | A Journey Against Stereotypes.
When Jacintha stepped behind the camera, she confronted her deepest fears of cultural ostracism only to be met with an outpouring of support that surprised even her. Her story, rooted in the rich tapestry of Singapore and Indian cinema, is a testament to the transformative power of film in bridging communities and giving voice to the silent struggles within them. This episode unfolds Jacintha's courageous journey from actress to filmmaker, revealing the tenacity it takes to challenge stereotypes and the unexpected embrace of narratives that resonate deeply with women, survivors, and the youth.
