Many say Singapore has the best education system in the world. So why mess with success?

A Quiet Revolution, follows the inspiring stories of two Singaporean school children facing the highest stakes exam of their lives - the primary school leaving exam, or PSLE.

It determines where you go to secondary school - and in credential-driven Singaporean society, it is a grade that stays with you for life. We see the hard studies, the tears, the testing grind, the passes and the failures - and learn the surprising way success-driven Singapore handles academic failure.

In a country where the ‘Tiger’ mom or dad is nothing new, this is an otherworldly look at high-stakes testing - and how it affects the lives and psyches of the children.
