Spotlight (film)

"Spotlight" is a movie about some reporters who work at a newspaper. These reporters are trying to find out some important information about something called "the Catholic Church." The Catholic Church is a big group of people who believe in a certain religion, and they have a lot of power and influence in the world.

The reporters found out that some people who were part of the Catholic Church had done some very bad things in the past. They hurt other people, especially young kids. This made a lot of people feel sad and angry, and the reporters wanted to tell everyone about it.

The reporters did a lot of work to find out the truth about what happened. They talked to a lot of people, read a lot of papers, and did a lot of research. It was very hard work, but they didn't give up.

In the end, they were able to publish their story in the newspaper. A lot of people read their story and were shocked. Some people were angry at the Catholic Church, and some people were very proud of the reporters for finding out the truth.

"Spotlight" is a very important movie because it shows us that sometimes, it's important to ask questions and find out the truth, even if it's hard work. It also shows us that sometimes, people in power can do bad things, and we need to make sure that they are held responsible for their actions.
