Ilm ka shehar is an essay film which examines the 19thcentury idea of knowledge characterized by the spirit of inclusivity, of making things accessible, of literatures, literary practices, and reading cultures, of open spaces. It traces the transformation of this idea to Knowledge City, a city based on the economy of byte sized information. It explores the concepts of space, place, and knowledge through small narratives from the city of Hyderabad, in the Deccan region of India. It features the work of modernist intellectual Dr. Syed Mohiuddin Qadri Zor of the Deccan.
