Disabled by arthritis since the age of four, confined to a wheelchair, his growth stunted, Stoney St. Clair joined the circus at 15 as a sword-swallower. A year later, he took up tattooing, and traveled with circuses and carnivals for 50 years. As we watch him at work, we see the determination which led Stoney to use his crippled hands in an art where mistakes are permanent, and we realize Stoney has overcome his handicap to heal himself and others with the magic of symbols. The film ends with a visit by New Age tattoo master Don Ed Hardy to Stoney, who gives him a souvenir tattoo.","wins":0,"nominations":null,"casts":[{"name":"Leonard \u0027Stoney\u0027 St. Clair","code":"nm0820457","characters":null},{"name":"Don Ed Hardy","code":"nm0362618","characters":null}],"budget":null,"lifetimeGross":null,"openingWeekendGross":null,"worldwideGross":null,"keywords":[{"text":"tattoo"},{"text":"tattooing"},{"text":"snake"},{"text":"columbus ohio"},{"text":"independent film"}],"production":[{"id":"co0033591","text":"Ethnoscope"}],"prestigiousAwardSummary":null,"moreLikeThisTitles":[{"code":"tt18672010","title":"Dugout Dick"},{"code":"tt26441793","title":"The Shadowless Tower"},{"code":"tt1336002","title":"Oh My God!
