Exit Through the Gift Shop

Thierry Guetta, a French filmmaker also known by his street artist name, Mr. Brainwash (he had his own splashy art show in L.A. named Life is Beautiful two years ago) started making a documentary about street art in the 1990s. He shot footage of Space Invader, who puts those pixelated Atari-esque mosaics all over the world. He went on wheatpasting outings with Shepard Fairey to paper cities in Obey Giant posters. And finally Guetta gained access to the great Banksy--who of course doesn't really want to be featured in a documentary. So Banksy turns the cameras on Guetta and makes a movie about him trying to make a movie about street art. What ensues looks to be as dark and unpredictable as one of Banksy's illustrations (via fastcompany).
