Al “Boston Globe” nell’estate del 2001 arriva da Miami un nuovo direttore, Marty Baron. E’ deciso a far sì che il giornale torni in prima linea su tematiche anche scottanti, liberando dalla routine il team di giornalisti investigativi che è aggregato sotto la sigla di ‘Spotlight’. Il primo argomento di cui vuole che il giornale si occupi è quello relativo a un sacerdote che nel corso di trent’anni ha abusato numerosi giovani senza che contro di lui venissero presi provvedimenti drastici. Baron è convinto che il cardinale di Boston fosse al corrente del problema ma che abbia fatto tutto quanto era in suo potere perché la questione venisse insabbiata. Nasce così un’inchiesta che ha portato letteralmente alla luce un numero molto elevato di abusi di minori in ambito ecclesiale.
