"Spotlight" was the big winner at the 31st Annual Independent Spirit Awards with this investigative journalism drama taking five awards including Best Feature. The stars of "Beasts of No Nation", Abraham Attah and Idris Elba took the Best Male Lead and Best Supporting Male prizes for their amazing work in the film.
