Why watch this? This covers the breaking story that many refused to believe.

Plot Summary: This crime true story recounts the Boston Globe's investigative reporting team as they uncover a massive scandal within the local Catholic Archdiocese. Prompted by a new editor, the team begins to delve into allegations of child molestation by priests and discovers a deep-rooted cover-up. Their meticulous investigation ultimately exposes a system that protected perpetrators and silenced victims, shaking the entire Catholic Church to its core.

Dad's Preview: Child manipulation and molestation are horrible. There can be no tolerance of it. Catholic priests are revered like they are God. This power, in the hands of people who are around children a great deal, can only corrupt. It also attracts those who's motive is to molest our most innocent. When confronted, the Church covers it up. The pedophile priests are transferred to new parishes. It's so goddamn ugly and disgusting. You need to see this film, about the determination to bringing sin into light. Covering up for pedophiles... God can't be happy about that.
