Arguably boasting one of the best casts of the decade—and launching the careers of Brie Larson, LaKeith Stanfield, Stephanie Beatriz, and Rami Malek, amongst others—Destin Daniel Cretton’s film is as relevant and engaging today as it was in 2013. In Short Term 12, 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.
