Follow Azad, a young pickpocket, who pushes his limits only to get caught by the police. In an effort to crack down on more serious crime, the police offer Azad a full pardon. But there's a catch—he must turn in his fellow grifters. Will he collaborate or risk it all for life on the streets? In this clip, Azad pledges loyalty to his fellow thieves. JOURNALS OF A WILY SCHOOL premieres Tuesday, October 27 on Independent Lens, a weekly series airing on PBS.
