Exit Through the Gift Shop, the first film by
renowned graffiti artist Banksy, became the hottest ticket at the 2010
Sundance Film Festival where it made its world debut. Banksy is a
graffiti artist with a global reputation whose work can be seen on walls
from posthurricane New Orleans to the separation barrier on the
Palestinian West Bank. Fiercely guarding his anonymity to avoid
prosecution, Banksy has so far resisted all attempts to be captured on
film. Exit Through the Gift Shop tells the incredible true story of how
an eccentric French shop keeper turned documentary maker attempted to
locate and befriend Banksy, only to have the artist turn the camera back
on its owner with spectacular results. The film contains exclusive
footage of Banksy, Shepard Fairey, Invader and many of the worlds most
infamous graffiti artists at work, on walls and in interview. As Banksy
describes it, Its basically the story of how one man set out to film the
unfilmable. And failed.
