By the time dreadlocked and pierced Tania comes home to New Orleans to get her snake tattoo completed, the seemingly simple task has gotten more difficult than she could have ever imagined. If she can't find a way to pay for the "tat" quickly, she must stay forever unfinished. Enter Big Marcus, a British hipster, who falls for Tania and tries to extract her from her maze of bad judgement. Yet he, too, loses his way as their lives enmesh. The unlikely pair then labor to bring a subcutaneous work of art into a world that couldn't possibly understand their obsessions. In their milieu of loonies, lovers, tattooists, transvestites and French Quarter freaks, the impossible becomes the merely improbable, and common sense gets as rare as an honest cop.
