Through an exploration of the tattoos on the bodies of American soldiers, Nancy Schiesari looks into the psyches of young men and women before they leave for Iraq and/or Afghanistan and after they return from deployment. The tattoos they get after their return are often quite different from the ones they got before going into battle. The images on their bodies tell us so much about their states of mind and the changes in their views, both positive and negative. It is a brilliant film which takes us beyond the evening news, the statistics, and the talking heads. Unfortunately Tattoed Under Fire has achieved a different kind of relevance from being set at Ft. Hood before a terrorist’s attack made even that refuge not so safe as before.
