Synopsis

Short Term 12 (2013) is an indie drama you can watch online on iFILM, with Brie Larson as Grace — a young supervisor at a residential care facility for at-risk teenagers. She knows how to reach kids that the system has mostly written off. Keeping her own life together is a different matter.

A new arrival changes the rhythm of the ward. The girl barely speaks, but her drawings say enough — and what they say mirrors something Grace has spent years burying. John Gallagher Jr. plays her partner Mason, and Rami Malek appears as an overwhelmed new hire finding his footing among kids whose needs outpace the staff.

Director Destin Daniel Cretton shot the film in 18 days on roughly a million dollars and produced one of the most clear-eyed American independent dramas of the decade. Watch Short Term 12 (2013) online on iFILM.
