For most of the last century, entry-level jobs were plentiful, and college was an affordable path to a fulfilling career. That world no longer exists. A new film parses the statistics and plots a path of likely success for today’s kids in the economy of today and the future.

The feature-length documentary Most Likely to Succeed examines the history of education, urging us to ask questions about our school model in todayʼs innovative world.

Directed by acclaimed documentarian Greg Whiteley, the film has been named “among the best edu-documentaries ever produced” by Education Week, and called a “smart and engaging look at education in the 21st century” by The Hollywood Reporter.  Film Threat stated that “this film should be a required course for all parents and educators.”

Most Likely To Succeed is an official selection of many of the nation’s top film festivals, including the prestigious 2015 Sundance Film Festival and Tribeca Film Festival.
