The Ink Life explores tattoos in Black British culture by following three Black tattoo artists and their customers.
Judges Comments:
"A beautifully shot documentary, the three black tattoo artists and their delighted clients clearly trusted the filmmaker. An important reminder that white skin is just an imaginary norm, this film made its antiracist point clearly and confidently. And now I want a tattoo!"
