    In the heart of a courtroom drama, Michael Trainer, a seasoned lawyer entrenched in safeguarding corporate interests, finds himself thrust into an unexpected battle. A for-profit Foster care agency's reckless decision to place a known sex offender under the same roof as Michael's young client, Jamal, sends shockwaves through his conscience. Initially reluctant to take on Jamal's case, Michael's perspective shifts when a Judge compels him to confront the grim reality. Seeing Jamal as merely a pawn in a profit-driven game, Michael's perception evolves as he delves deeper into the harrowing truth behind the corrupt and abusive practices of the Foster care system. As their partnership uncovers layers of injustice, Michael undergoes a profound transformation from reluctant bystander to a relentless crusader for justice.

    We need more movies like this that shine a light on the injustice in the system instead of all the glamor one sees at the academy awards. These are much more important than those.

    My wife and I have 2 foster kids and treats them as our own. What we do for our own two boys, we exactly do the same for them. We don't differentiate.

      Kudos to you and your wife, sir. This is only human decency and should be the way that all children are treated, but unfortunately not all people are like that. Lots of people are just in it for the money. Lots of people don’t think of children as people. They think of them as a possession and something that they can boss around and control. This movie made me cry and cry because I know that Jamal‘s not the only kid out there who suffered at the hands of adults or other children in the home because people weren’t observant enough.

    Foster boy was so good. This young man stayed in 14 foster homes and suffered rape, being beaten, put in cage. He was so brave to sue and be so emotionally stable to take this step. I love the fact that the lawyer and young man learned from each other and helped improve both lives. Young man received $32 million in damages.I am going to watch movie again. So brave and smart.

      Unfortunately, the 32 million that he was awarded probably was not received because the company could afford to keep this in court for years. The owner of the company said wait for a while it’ll die down and then we will hit them so we know that they’re gonna fight back. Jamal might be awarded some of the money but I bet he never ever saw the 32 million.

    As a foster MaMa of 26 years this broke my heart… I just can’t fathom the abuse and cruelty that precious and vulnerable children are subjected to at the very hands of those entrusted to care… We have received broken little people into our home , broken from the very system they were placed in to … It takes years to gently peel back the layers and rebuild… Countless hours I have cried and prayed with every fibre of my being that our love will help heal the wounds. I love every precious one as my own .

      No one hears the silent tears of children and of the abused. You don't have to be a foster child to have experience abuse while you were a child. ,, as adults we often face abuse and cruelty. Racism causes PTSD but it's the 21st century the year of Our Lord 2024 and every day because of the color of our skin we face microaggression and racial discrimination and blatant racism. While this movie may be hard to watch adults Behavior towards a child. We are hard-pressed to take a look in the mirror as adults and the type of pain inflicted on adults that causes abuse funneled down to children innocent children. Someday we're going to all have to face the judgement bar of the creator and give an account.🎉 adult monsters are created.😮

      That is scary especially to the bright child who is being abused by his/her real parent/parents and they have a good understanding of the foster care system. Your basically asking the kid to take a chance and stay with the abusive parents, or take a gamble in the foster system. Maybe it will be good, or maybe it would be worse than what you already have. Sad situation.

And thank the Lord that he had a wonderful foster couple, a Hispanic fellow, married to a white, Caucasian gal!! And they were wonderful!! Thank you too the main actor here or the two main actors!! The fellow who played the lawyer, and the young man who played Jamal!!! And all the other great actors and actresses!!! This was very emotional and very well done! Thank you to the Director and everybody else who supported all this behind the scenes also!! You are all to be commended!!!! ❤

    i dont understand why kids in foster care are given to bad people there are good families out there . id love to do foster care but because i cant afford to put new prettier flooring in three rooms and remodel my working bath room my house wont qualify even though its a livable home.. and id have to take a class for several months that isnt in my town i wouldnt qualify with out and who knows if they would even approve me at 45 years old. totally stupid because ive raised 3 kids of my own, 1 of my nieces for 5 years, taken care of countless number of children through the years while my kids were growing up and am now watching my granddaughter off and on when my daughter has to work and will be a grand ma to 2 other grand kids this year without any classes. so its ok to be a parent to a child with out classes but not foster a child with out classes. um excuse me i would take care of foster child just fine like they were my own. to many whoops to jump through for most that is one reason so many kids stuck in group homes ect when they could be with a loving family .

    Such a powerful, emotional film.. A strong lesson to be learned by all social workers out there! Who think they are doing the best for children when in fact they are only boosting their own egos! Not all are bad but in the end they have to do what they are told to do .. in the mean time millions of kids lives are being destroyed.. When will this system change????

    Thank you so much for posting this movie. I had never heard of it. The wonderful Matthew Modine was superb, as usual, as were the whole cast. Was so glad it just happened to pop up and I chose to watch it. It hit close to home for me. Far too many childhoods are stolen leaving broken, abused and ‘disposable’ lives ruined along the way. My blood was boiling and my heart breaking for Jamal & all the others like him. Hard to watch but a subject that needs to be exposed so much more. Great movie and much appreciated.😢💔

    Excellent movie. This is happening in our world today right before our eyes. Our children are being molested, and having vile things pushed into their lives and the people who are suppose to protect them but they are actually turning them over to the depraved evil people for profit and gain. Shame on the ones who are supposed to protect them !!!!! 😢😢😢😢😢

    A very touching movie that is sadly the reality of some poor kid. May God love cover and protect these little ones from the demons that lie in wait to destroy them. Sadly, society seems to be unaware of their plight or just blatantly ignores what is going on in these "safe" places. We are our brothers keeper. May God help us all.

    It's my second time to watch this movie coz I am fond of watching trials in court.
    This was a good movie to watch especially those running a foster homes.Pls.treat those foster children as your own child coz they also needs a true love & care which they didn't experienced from their own parents.
    I"m in tears watching this coz Jamal was been fostered 12x & suffered tremendous pain,hardly beaten, put into cage as if he's an animal but the worst experienced he had was when he was raped for 3 years & no action from the foster care.
    Thanks to his counsel who believes in him & to all the jurors who found the dependant guilty & asked to pay Jamal $32M.

    Was very touching. I was even crying. Teaches us alot of what happens with children and they are not able to express themselves when things like that happen. It totally destroys a child mentally and physically. Some people are just interested in the money. Thats why money is the root of all evil....😢

    Wow! I cried like a baby. I wasn't sure I was going to like this movie, as Matthew Modine has never been one of my favorites. Once I saw Louis Gosset Jr, I knew it would be a great one! What a powerful story this is. It had a tremendous affect on me. I have heard this type of thing goes on, but I guess I didn't want to believe it? My eyes have been opened WIDE! Thank you for this movie!

    There is alot that can be said about wroughting any Foster Care System, within any government run dept for children there will be abuse. Good movie that really does outline the greedy fat cats and how this system suits them admirably, often NEVER ANY SYSTEM THAT HAS POWERFUL WATCH DOGS to 'Serve and Protect'

    How people view you is the way they treat you. Especially if you are poor . People will know that some authorians have shady ways on the job and their coworkers will just turn a blind eye. The children care system is broken , the mindset of the workers needs to change into caring ,skillful ways . The children are our future, nurture them the right way and our society will become one of productivity and success. Great show, it really touched my heart.

    Seen this movie before. Children's trust, the want to be accepted, to feel they are worth something. I was a child with Dyslexia , 365 days before even starting school, then when I went school and home again, to hear the words " how can I be so stupid, dumb" be it at home or in school. TODAY this problem is Known, but not accepted as a problem, nor testes. There are 1- to about 12 different forms. But education seems to be more interested in if the child feels more like a BOY or a Girl. to have Drag Queens come to read stories, Shame on the American Education system, and placements for Children. our so call future LEADERS, will the be ready to lead?

    Excellent movie and great cast..this one caught me by surprise. As always, its the children who suffer the most. This wasnt all about the money from a settlement, its about uncovering the corruption within the system. There are some awesome foster parents in it that truly love and want to help children. Its the monsters behind the paperwork and the bad fosters that are only in it for profit that makes it bad. The agencies need to be checking on these kids more closely and monitor each situation. But that also takes extra staff and funding. If our govt can keep sending bilions to foreign countries and housing and feeding illegals then they should have enough to take care of our own children properly in our systens..

    It's a fact that people will judge you for your appearance and not for what you are...
    And to make the EVIL 😈 MASK DROP....
    IS SO VERY IMPORTANT AND DIFFICULT...
    BUT THERE IS ALWAYS HOOP TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND CHANGE THE SYSTEM...
    THAT IS SO DAMAGED AND CORRUPT !!!!
    CHILDREN ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GO THROUGH THEIR SELFISH ACTIONS !!!
