TONIGHT: BANKSY's US Premiere 'Exit Through the Gift Shop' @ the Los Angeles Theater

Banksy's 'Exit Through The Gift Shop' is a guerrilla documentary which debuted at Sundance earlier this year. It's billed as "the world's first street art disaster movie" and centers on a dude named Banksy, Planet Earth's most infamous practitioner of politically charged urban art. Judging from the initial trailer we assumed Exit Through The Gift Shop would be a fly on the wall look at how Banksy conceives and executes his work but in a new five minute trailer, the incognito poster boy for the global street art movement offers a slightly different take: "The film's the story of what happened when this guy tried to make a documentary about me." he says "But he was actually a lot more interesting than I am so now the film is kind of about him." - Pedestrian TV

Sundance Work in Progress: Out in the Silence

Out In The Silence is a documentary film that captures the remarkable chain of events that unfold when the announcement of filmmaker Joe Wilson’s wedding to another man ignites a firestorm of controversy in the small Pennsylvania hometown he left long ago. Out In The Silence is a Sundance Works in Progress screening, which provides an opportunity for filmmakers and viewers to explore the creative process and examine the issues addressed in the film. Out In The Silence has received creative and financial support from the Sundance Institute Documentary Film Program, a core program of Sundance Institute, a non-profit organization dedicated to the discovery and development of independent artists. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with filmmakers Joe Wilson and Dean Hamer.
