Synopsis:
Bengaluru is being refashioned as a 'world class metropolis'. The film captures the transformation of the city scape over the period 2008-2013: destruction of homes, proliferation of swanky malls and gated communities, and shrinking of green cover. It follows individuals, citizen groups, environmentalists and academics who challenge the State's ideal of the city.
