Synopsis/Details
"INKED" is a heartfelt and intimate mockumentary set entirely in a small tattoo shop where clients and artists share the deeply personal stories behind their first tattoos. From NATE, an anxious man honoring his late father with a compass, to CARMEN, a confident woman embracing her imperfect past with a crooked heart, each tale reveals unique perspectives on identity, growth, and self-expression. Guided by the compassionate LUNA, a seasoned tattoo artist, and her eager apprentice RILEY, the shop becomes a canvas for stories of courage, transformation, and the beauty of imperfection. Through humor, reflection, and the buzzing hum of the tattoo gun, the film explores the universal human desire to leave a mark--on the skin and the soul.
