"Local Legends" explores the rise of the Philippine tattoo industry from a vilified, underground craft, into a celebrated profession through the journey of tattoo artist and Philippine Tattoo Artists Guild (PHILTAG) founding member Myke Sambajon.

Sambajon then explains how industry stalwarts took the initiative to turn their underground industry into a regulated profession, and talks about how tattooing slowly took a toll on his health. Lastly, Sambajon shares how he was able to recover from a brain surgery with the help of friends from the tattoo and entertainment industry who raised funds for his rehabilitation, and gives advice for budding tattoo artists.
