Exit Through The Gift Shop

Exit Through the Gift Shop: A Banksy Film is a British documentary film directed by street artist Banksy that was released in 2010. It follows Thierry Guetta, a French immigrant living in Los Angeles, and his passion for street art. Guetta's constant filming of his every waking moment, from a chance encounter with his cousin, the artist Invader, to his introduction to a slew of street artists, with a focus on Shepard Fairey and Banksy, whose anonymity is preserved by obscuring his face and altering his voice, to Guetta's eventual fame as a street artist himself, is chronicled in the film.

Exit Through the Gift Shop, directed by the enigmatic graffiti artist Bansky, is a film that might or could not be a hoax. Despite the fact that the film was released over a decade ago, the line between fact and fiction is still blurred. Regardless of the film's veracity, Exit Through the Gift Shop is a mind-boggling experience that virtually transcends description. Thierry Guetta, or Mr. Brainwash, is a filmmaker-turned-art-sensation who may or may not be an art exhibit himself. Weird, humorous, scary, and one-of-a-kind, it's a crazy adventure worth returning to uncover its riddles.
