My H and I just watched this last night and one line that popped right out for me was when one of the victims told the Spotlight reporters that not only had he been sexually abused, his faith had been taken from him - a double loss. 

From Wikipedia: Spotlight is a 2015 American biographical drama film directed by Tom McCarthy and written by McCarthy and Josh Singer. The film follows The Boston Globe's "Spotlight" team, the oldest continuously operating newspaper investigative journalist unit in the United States, and its investigation into a decades-long coverup of widespread and systemic child sex abuse by numerous priests of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston.

Really good movie - made my blood boil and my heart sing at the same time.
