After a quarrel with his wife, a man leaves their apartment with one suitcase only. Having slept in a train station, the police legitimates him and found him suspicious. Soon he'll find himself locked in a prison with several other, mostly innocent people. The true horror begins only then.(IMDB Page)

The story takes place in the socialist Republic of Macedonia as a part of Yugoslavia, during the time of the disappearing of the communism -- the last great human conspiracy towards God. The film speaks about the uselessness in its functioning of the absurdity of its repression and violence, as regret the only unavoidable constants of the Yugo-faith. The action in "Tattoo" develops starting from an absurd situation when the main character Ilija, who as if he has been predestined to be in conflict with the official forces which "preserve" order, after a quarrel with his wife, leaves home with the only thing he really possesses, his empty suitcase. Trying to find some peace, he goes to the railway station where he seems suspicious to a couple of policemen who -- for reasons known only for them -- arrest him.
