Quote: EXIT THROUGH THE GIFT SHOP is the inside story of street art -- a chaotic brew of illegal self-expression that exploded into a global phenomenon  -- and what happens when an eccentric shopkeeper-turned-amateur-filmmaker named Thierry Guetta sets out to produce the ultimate documentary on the art form. After spending five years recording many of the world’s most infamous vandals at work, he met Banksy, a camera shy British stencil artist who felt Guetta himself would make a more fitting subject for a documentary.

Turning the camera back on its owner with wildly unexpected results EXIT THROUGH THE GIFT SHOP is a brutal and revealing account of what happens when fame, money and vandalism collide.  One of the most provocative films about art ever made, Banksy tells the incredible true-life story of what happened when Guetta transformed himself into street art sensation Mr. Brainwash.  By turns shocking, hilarious and absurd, this is an enthralling modern-day fairytale... with bolt cutters.
