Synopsis

This is the inside story of Street Art -- a brutal and revealing account of what happens when fame, money and vandalism collide. Exit Through the Gift Shop follows an eccentric shop-keeper turned amateur film-maker as he attempts to capture many of the world's most infamous vandals on camera, only to have a British stencil artist named Banksy turn the camcorder back on its owner with wildly unexpected results.

One of the most provocative films about art ever made, Exit Through the Gift Shop is a fascinating study of low-level criminality, comradeship and incompetence. By turns shocking, hilarious and absurd, this is an enthralling modern-day fairytale... with bolt cutters.

Directed by street artist Banksy and featuring him and fellow artists Thierry Guetta, Shepard Fairey, and Invader. EXIT THROUGH THE GIFT SHOP was released in the US by Producers Distribution.
