At a foster-care facility for at-risk teenagers, Grace is a young counselor trying to do her best for kids who often have been pulled from the worst kinds of home situations. Even then, life is not easy as Grace and her colleagues care for kids who are too often profoundly scarred, even as they try to have lives of their own. Now, things are coming to a head as Grace readies for marriage even as some her charges are coming to major turning points in their lives. To cope, Grace will have to make difficult perceptions and decisions that could put her career, and more importantly her charges, at dire risk.

bonita tindle has nothing to do with this movie, she just wrote a review. i am definitely not defending her, but take the hate elsewhere. - @Saturday, April 2, 2016 9:57 AM

Congratulations, you're now a famous racist that set the feminist movement back another 10 years. You're a disgrace to humanity and women everywhere, may you draw power from the fact you will be used as prime example of what is not acceptable. To quote yourself - Ur gunna learn from thz. - @Friday, April 1, 2016 7:39 AM

This was one of the best scripts I had EVER read. I am still emotionally moved by the script and have not seen the film yet. I can relate to Grace a lot and even spoke of the story since I am currently working through trauma work. I highly recommend the read if you can. - @Friday, December 20, 2013 6:32 AM
