Spotlight (2015)
Ein einfacher Artikel in der Boston Globes setzt eine Kettenreaktion in Gang: Es wird berichtet, dass es in Boston einen Kindesmissbrauch in der katholischen Kirche gab. Chefredakteur Marty Baron vermutet, dass hier noch mehr passiert sein kann und setzt ein Team, bestehend aus Walter Robinson, Michael Rezendes, Sacha Pfeiffer und Matt Carol, auf die Recherche an. Das Team deckt eine Reihe von Missbräuchen auf und will sie an die Öffentlichkeit bringen. Doch das Schweigen der Opfer und Anwälte, die gegen das Team arbeiten, erschweren die Nachforschungen …
