Spotlight — 8 Lausnir

They are coming. The solution is here.

The film jumped. The woman pointed to the floorboards beneath the spotlight. She mouthed one word: Geymið — Store it .

That evening, a crowd gathered outside the theater — not with picket signs, but with flashlights. They aimed them at the boarded windows. One beam. Ten. A hundred.
