Grace is a 20-something supervisor at Short Term 12, a foster-care facility for at-risk teenagers. She is passionate about her work and takes great care of the kids, though she struggles with her own troubled past. When Jayden, a gifted, restless, teenager arrives at the facility, Grace finds herself no longer able to ignore the difficulties of her own childhood – and it puts the delicate balance of her life and work at risk. She must find her way through a crisis that both pushes her to the edge and allows her to discover unexpected glimmers of humor and hope. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

This film and its creators deserve a lot of admiration, just like the social workers in similar centres and institutions. It doesn’t have any known faces or great production values, but it does have a strong topic, a convincing execution and effective emotions. And outsider on paper – even the synopsis is not very attractive – but it’s actually one of the best indie films of last year.

Short Term 12 is a pleasant, subtle, independent film that will surprise you with its power. Brie Larson plays the character of Grace, caring supervisor at a foster-care facility for at-risk teenagers who tries to help these kids. Progressively we discover that her own past is very troubled. She sees herself in a newly arrived teenager, Jadyn, whose pain and traumas open up Grace's own old wounds. The film mixes atmosphere brilliantly: the fates of the children are challenging, but the emotions are portrayed unobtrusively, and by the end, you're left with a pleasant sense of hopefulness. Brie Larson gives one of her best performances here.
