Exit Through the Gift Shop is the highest-grossing street art documentary ever, earning $5.3 million globally and landing an Academy Award nomination in 2010. Banksy's film follows Thierry Guetta's transformation from obsessive videographer to art world commentary, simultaneously celebrating and savaging how value is assigned to art. It is 85% more critically acclaimed than the average documentary (92% Rotten Tomatoes) and outperforms #1 *Bowling for Columbine* in questioning authenticity, leaving audiences unresolved about who really created Mr. Brainwash.
