Though his true identity remains a secret, graffiti artist Banksy has become one of pop culture's greatest icons. Exit Through the Gift Shop follows the attempts of an eccentric L.A. thrift shop owner to capture the ever-elusive Banksy at work -- only to have the mischievous artist turn the camera back on him with hilarious results.
