Plot Synopsis

Told from both the point of view of the police and their targets, ''The Wire'' chronicles the decline of the working class in American cities, as revealed on the Baltimore waterfront and its unions. ''The Wire'' captures a universe where easy distinctions between good end evil, and crime and punishment, are challenged at every turn.
