SHORT TERM 12 IN CINEMAS ON 1st NOV 2013 www.vivaverve.com/shortterm12 Twitter: @ShortTerm12UK Facebook: /ShortTerm12UK "Just watched the captivating Short Term 12. Can't wait until it is released so we can all talk about it." - Lena Dunham, creator of Girls Short Term 12 was the toast of this year's South by Southwest (SXSW) festival, winning both the Grand Jury Prize in the Narrative Feature Competition and the Audience Award. Told through the eyes of Grace (Brie Larson), a twenty-something supervisor at a foster-care facility for at-risk teenagers, Short Term 12 is written and directed by Destin Cretton. Passionate and tough, Grace is a formidable caretaker of the kids in her charge, and in love with her long-term boyfriend and co-worker, Mason (John Gallagher Jr). But Grace's own difficult past, and the surprising future that suddenly presents itself, throw her into unforeseen confusion, made all the sharper with the arrival of a new intake at the facility: a gifted but troubled teenage girl with whom Grace has a charged connection. While the subject matter is complex and often dark, Short Term 12 finds truth, and humour, in unexpected places. Winner - Grand Jury Prize, SXSW Film Festival Winner - Audience Award, SXSW Film Festival Winner - Best Actress (Brie Larson), Locarno Film Festival Special Jury Mention - Locarno Film Festival
