Synopsis
Mike was forced to leave his hometown of Aleppo, Syria at 16. He couldn't imagine seizing a weapon in fight against Bashar's regime at such a young age. Besides, he could never pursue his dream in a Muslim country. He's always wanted to become a tattoo artist and Islam prohibits body modification. Mike converts to Christianity, gets married and opens a tattoo studio in Tbilisi, Georgia. No one really goes there, as Georgians have little faith in the young Arab's skills and consider him a terrorist. He plans to move to Europe. After three failed attempts at immigration and losing all his money, he is back to Georgia, defeated. Reality pushes out naivety. However, Mike isn't ready to give up on his childhood dream just yet.
