This is a very much needed title, historically, in looking at the subject of Banksy. This is the most information containing documentary I have seen on the subject.. There are interviews with collaborators, people who have met him, (some maybe?) Friends etc. It also contains an amazing array of works by Banks, speculation into why art costs what it does, reactions of the people who have encountered the work and encountered the person as he works. This is the only documentary I have seen that does not sensationalize the mess but takes an honest artistic look at the man the work and the mystery. You should look out for the UK edition. The artwork on the cover is very special.

Plot summary
Understanding how plastic any notion of truth and value can be, when the subject of an interview can be manipulated into saying anything the film-maker wants, when a guy with a spray can has more relevance to the world of art than its most famed and moneyed exponents. Even the opinion people have of the work is contradictory, favored by their prejudices. docoBANKSY gleefully picks up on these contradictions, playing opposing soundbites over the same graffiti. docoBANKSY adds another layer onto the absurdity by making the point that the film is not even his own work, simply something that he has found and redistributed.
