The world's first street art disaster movie. Exit Through the Gift Shop, the first film by renowned graffiti artist Banksy, became the hottest ticket at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival where it made its world debut.
Banksy is a graffiti artist with a global reputation whose work can be seen on walls from post-hurricane New Orleans to the separation barrier on the Palestinian West Bank. Fiercely guarding his anonymity to avoid prosecution, Banksy has so far resisted all attempts to be captured on film. Exit Through the Gift Shop tells the incredible true story of how an eccentric French shop keeper turned documentary maker attempted to locate and befriend Banksy, only to have the artist turn the camera back on its owner with spectacular results.
The film contains exclusive footage of Banksy, Shepard Fairey, Invader and many of the world's most infamous graffiti artists at work, on walls and in interview.
As Banksy describes it, 'It's basically the story of how one man set out to film the un-filmable. And failed'.
It's 1974 in the Midlands where power cuts, strikes and boot-boy aggro on football terraces are the norm. Joe McCain (Martin Compston: The Disappearance of Alice Creed) and best friend Russ Mountjoy (Alfie Allen: Atonement) are stuck in dead-end jobs and bored with lives going nowhere. That is until Joe meets Jane (Nichola Burley: Streetdance 3D), a brassy, blond hairdresser who introduces him to a whole new world of sound and movement and all-night dancing: the Wigan Casino, home of Northern Soul.
Mandy (Felicity Jones: The Tempest, Cemetery Junction), a cute, aspiring artist, is eager to help Joe become the cool 'soul boy' he wants to be. Mandy falls for Joe and a love triangle develops with Jane and Mandy, and Joe has to decide who he really wants in his life. Along the way, they all get swept up in the soul scene, testing each other and confronting darker sides of the scene and their own souls.
SoulBoy also stars Craig Parkinson (Control, Four Lions), Jo Hartley (This is England '86) and Irish superstar Pat Shortt (Garage) and features a soundtrack of all the era's anthems and a new cover of Magic Carpet Ride by soul sensation Gabriella Cilmi.

He may not be the most observant, but in his heart he is as Muslim as it gets.
But after his mother's death a discovery turns Mahmud's world upside down. He finds his birth certificate which reveals that not only was he adopted at birth but he's Jewish, and his real name is Solly Shimshillewitz! As Mahmud tumbles headlong into a full scale identity crisis, the only person he can turn to is LENNY, a drunken Jewish cabbie who agrees to give him lessons in Jewishness, which start with how to dance like Topol. Oy vey.
