Description or Abstract

This audio documentary attempts to discuss Egypt’s rising tattoo community within a society that is heavily opposed to it. Three young people share their tattoo stories in a society that is heavily opposed to them – why they got them, how they got them and what people think of them. This documentary sheds light on the preexisting taboos surrounding tattoos within the Egyptian society as a result of certain religious beliefs.
