From people with tattoo s on every body part, to tattoo s for the blind, this controversial documentary will take you on a visually stunning, and sometimes disturbing journey into the world of tattoo s.

The film also delves into the minds of people to discover their emotional and personal reasons for getting a tattoo, including Meg Gaffney s powerful story as she seeks a tattoo artist to replicate her nipples after battling cancer. Incorporated into the film is the celebrity survey and stories from names such as: Julie Benz, Ana Matronic (Scissor Sisters), Warwick Davies, Kaiser Chiefs, Leslie Phillips CBE, David 'Kill Bill' Carradin
