Giampaolo Manca, a former criminal notorious for his burglaries in Venice in the 1970s, has become a tour guide in his 70s. His tours include important places in his life, such as the harbor from where he stole a boat and the church from where he stole a medieval canvas. After 37 years in prison, Manca is using his experience to help children with autism by donating half of his tour earnings, which cost €20 per person, to charity.
