EXIT THROUGH THE GIFT SHOP

Exit Through the Gift Shop is the first film by renowned graffiti artist Banksy, whose work
can be seen on walls from post-hurricane 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 shopkeeper turned documentary filmmaker 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 world's most infamous graffiti artists at work, on walls and in interview.
UK, USA, 2010, 87 min.; color, 35mm Director: Banksy
