From KCRW in Santa Monica, this is The Treatment.

Welcome to The Treatment. I'm Elvis Mitchell. You can also hear the show at KCRW.com.

At this year's Sundance Film Festival, a documentary exit through a gift shop made quite a splash.

It's directed by the street artist and sort of counter-revolutionary Banksy.

Its producer, Jamie D. Cruz and his editor, Chris King are here with me.

Guys, first of all, thanks so much for being here.

Nice to be here, thanks. Pleasure to be here.

And were you at Sundance for the film i was yeah and and what was that like it was um it was very

interesting because i think um unlike most people that go to sundance you know you normally arrive

um armed with i hadn't actually been there before actually i should say that but i imagine that you

arrive at sundance armed with lots of information and flyers and leaflets

and appointments with journalists,

and you want to make a big song and dance about it.

We arrived, showed the film, and left.

Not only that, but at that first screening,

half the heads in the theater were craned around

trying to see if they could spot a glimpse of what Banksy must look like.

And I have to turn to you this point, Jamie.
