Short Term 12 Trailer

See the entire film on Wholphin DVD Issue No.8 - Available May 2009.

Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton

Winner of the Sundance Short Award

Brad William Henke (Choke, Sherry Baby, World Trade Center) is Denim, the supervisor for a residential facility housing 15 kids who are all affected by child abuse and neglect in unimaginable ways. Inside the gates of Short Term 12, fights and blow-ups happen daily and Denim knows how to respond. But as his personal life collides with work, he begins to realize that he is no better off than the kids he's trying to help.

The film places viewers within the walls of a real facility and lets them feel what its like to live and work in a place where hope is often difficult to find. An all-star ensemble cast radiates in this gritty and honest look at how human beings, no matter the age, inevitably impact each other.

I saw this movie in my English Class, tough stuff, and the sad thing is that it is like this in the real world to.

I actually worked for short term 12 in San Diego for about two years as a child counselor. These teenagers get really crazy, if I told my war stories you would cry.. I am so glad I don't work there anymore, because it really emotionally draining..

The guy that made this went to SDSU, I've seen the whole thing a few times. Its amazing. I highly recommend it.

i like. it looks like something that isn't explored as much in films these days; actual human beings and how they react to trying situations. looks good.
