“I am a dwarf and I accept it,” says Douchka Volaric, invited on the set of “Quelle époque” on France 2, before adding “you have to call a spade, a spade!” Douchka Volaric, young woman suffering from dwarfism and followed by more than a million people on TikTok, and she does not have her tongue in her pocket as we saw last night and she has the will not to be reduced to just her size.

On France 2, last night, she explained that she was very bothered by the use of dwarves in games or TV shows in which they are there only to “play” the dwarves:

“In Fort Boyard, Passe(Partout) is still very disturbing, because he is there and doesn’t even speak. On the other hand, we take close-ups of his arms or his legs. I find that it’s really a problem, even if he is undoubtedly very happy to do so”.
