Destin Daniel Cretton extended his original short (which is included in Special Features) into this full length feature about troubled & abused young adults living in a group home where they receive psychological counselling for up to a year (hence the short term-12). Brie Larson showed off her acting chops early in her career in this indie film. The story portrays kids with serious issues being supervised by Larson and Gallagher, who clearly have some unresolved issues of their own. Rami Malek, (Mr. Robot) plays a new counselor trainee, but isn't given much to do.
