“Break the story. Break the silence.”
Director
Tom McCarthy
Screenplay
Josh Singer, Tom McCarthy
In 2001, the Boston Globe's Spotlight investigative team embarks on an inquiry that begins with a single priest accused of abuse and ends up uncovering a systematic pattern of child molestation covered up for decades by Boston's Catholic archdiocese. Against institutional silence, social pressure and their own doubts, the reporters comb through documents, interview victims and pursue the truth to the highest levels. Based on real events and winner of the Best Picture Oscar, it is a sober, rigorous drama that champions patient journalism as a pillar of society.
