Happy Valley (2014)

Released November 21st in the US.
The story : For years , Penn State University has been seriously playing football.
The teams were trained and coached by two very influentual men , head coach Joe Paterno and assistant coach Jerry Sandusky.
The two men could do no wrong , helping to make Penn State a college with a high graduation rate due to their football expertise and work with the players.
Joe Paterno had made such a name for himself , being sought after by the likes of The Patriots.
Jerry Sandusky was also standing tall as he funded a non-profit charity for less fortunate children.
But in 2011 , everything changed for Paterno and Sandusky.
A child had come forth to Paterno , telling him of Sandusky molesting him.
Paterno told the proper people of this knowledge and left it just like that.
But his less than serious approach cost him.
