Short description
Grace, a compassionate young supervisor at a foster care facility, helps at-risk teens. But when a new charge dredges up memories of her own troubled past, Grace's tough exterior begins eroding.
What's left behind the scenes
- To convince director Destin Cretton to cast her, Brie Larson told him that she had joined volunteers working with disadvantaged children after reading the script to research the role. Cretton was impressed and cast her. It was only later that it became known that Larson had been rejected by every organization she approached.
- Almost all of the actors were cast through an open casting call. The only one who reprised his role from the 2008 short film "Short Term 12" was Lakeith Stanfield. He had already left acting and didn't even have a cell phone, so director Destin Daniel Cretton had to go to great lengths to find him.
- Nat Sanders was the film's editor. Both the original version and the director's cut ran for over two hours, while the director insisted the film be under 100 minutes. Ultimately, the film was cut down to 96 minutes.
- Brie Larson and John Gallagher Jr. were cast after auditions held via Skype.
