Short Term 12
Support them. Take care of them. But don't become their friend.

Produced by Traction Media, Animal Kingdom
A tender yet unflinching portrait of trauma, healing, and the fragile bonds formed between a caregiver and vulnerable youth in a foster care facility.
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.
