From Executive Producers Fear Marvelous Brothers

Behind every tattoo is a story. Behind every story is a scar, a fight, a turning point.

I AM INKED is a multi-narrative documentary film that follows ten extraordinary tattoo artists from different walks of life—people who have faced addiction, incarceration, illness, immigration, loss, and personal reinvention, and found healing through art.

This is not just a film about tattoos. It is a film about becoming.

Ten captivating stories. One documentary film.

From the streets of Manila to second chances after prison, from cancer survival to rebuilding after divorce, I AM INKED reveals the real people behind the ink.

Each artist brings a different past..

Meet the Artists

Steph. Hector. Angel. Ned. Matthew. Brett. Italo. Deanna. ED. EM.

Ten artists. Ten journeys. One unforgettable documentary.

From Ned De Leon, who rose from the streets of Manila and a battle with addiction to find peace through faith, family, and surf, to Matthew Evans, a cancer survivor and former corporate exec who turned to tattooing as his salvation, every story is layered with courage. Miguel Angel Calderon, a Colombian immigrant, is self-taught and driven by the belief that art can uplift and transform. Hector Martinez overcame street life and personal tragedy to build a thriving studio while raising five children. Deanna Verrico started tattooing in high school and lives boldly—part artist, part adventurer. Italo Romero, blending science and street art, uses ink to explore dimension and self-expression. Brett Stuhler, once running a janitorial business, found new life and identity in tattooing after a painful divorce. Edwin Barba, a graffiti kid from Nicaragua, now stuns with hyper-realistic ink crafted from self-taught skill. EM Rodriguez found both purpose and pain in his years as a medical examiner. Now, as a respected tattoo artist and studio founder, he transforms the weight of his past into powerful art and storytelling. And Stephanie Jordan, who rebuilt her life after prison, now leads a studio and mentors the next generation with unmatched drive and artistry.
