Synopsis:

From Victoria Street To Ang Mo Kio takes you back to the mid-20th century, to the grounds of Victoria Street. It follows the lives of two girls, simply trying to get an education. So too their principal, who comes up against strong political and social forces - but simply fights on for her students. Through hours of research and interviews, filmmaker Eva Tang has captured the creaky staircases and alleyway classes of an era past.

Deftly transitioning to modern Singapore, she distills the grit of a group of women determined to forge an education for themselves in a time and place of few choices. You'll laugh, you'll cry at this universal tale of triumph.
