Open Doors reveals to the viewer, the life of the inhabitants in a small piece of land in Karnataka. Ambedkar Nagar, which started with four huts, now has close to five hundred people dwelling within its narrow by-lanes.

From the idealistic and zealous voice of a young man who wants to bring education to his community to that of a retired worker who values intelligence over everything and is apprehensive of modern education - the documentary reveals different voices.

Without falling in the trap of voyeurism, romanticizing, or any other problematic forms of the portrayal of poverty, the film engages with issues of class, caste-ism, and everyday survival.
