Question 565: On Jordan's Bank the Baptist Cry


Belated OScar Question, since i had no idea when it was due to that stupid pre WC coverage

__X__ is the story of Thiery Guetta, and his love. In the film, he hears about the urban legend __Y__ and tries to contact him. After many a failed attempt, he finally does and for the rest you need to watch __X__, and not spoil the surprise; partly coz i haven't seen __X__ or __Y__ either,lol.
__Y__'s manager had this to say about __X__:
"I think the joke is on... I don’t know who the joke is on, really. I don’t even know if there is a joke."
__Y___'s former spokesman

On __Y__ and the choices of __Y__, it can best be summed up in his own words:
"When you go to an art gallery you are simply a tourist looking at the trophy cabinet of a few millionaires."
– __Y___

Y

X


So:
1) Give me X
2) & Y
Brownie points for what it is Y does

PS: Pi.R.Square, Manish HN & Rohan have already answered it, and your scores have been updated
So no baying for my blood.
