Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A five minute and fifteen second preview of Exit Through the Gift Shop, the first film by renowned urban and graffiti artist Banksy, appeared on video hosting website YouTube on April 5.
The documentary which made its world debut at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival and gained the title of "the world's first street art disaster movie," features exclusive footage of the artist at work in the urban environment alongside some of the world's most infamous graffiti artists.
Exit Through the Gift Shop "tells the incredible true story of how an eccentric French shopkeeper turned documentary maker attempted to locate and befriend Banksy, only to have the artist turn the camera back on its owner with spectacular results," explains the preview blurb on YouTube.
Exit Through the Gift Shop opens in the US on April 16.
The preview can be seen on the official website, http://www.banksyfilm.com, or on YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0b90YppquE
