Luce, a 2019 film on Paramount and Showtime.

It stars Naomi Watts and Tim Roth as parents of a high achieving Black teen they adopted from Africa when he was 7 years old. Olivia Spencer plays his history teacher who sets the story in motion when she discovers that the boy may have issues. An absorbing thought provoking drama that examines race, identity, and privilege in this country. The acting is first rate, especially Kevin Harrison Jr who plays the teenager. The kind of film that begs to be discussed afterwards. Highly recommended.

It was called "Funny Games" and is one of the most disturbing and creepiest film I've seen in ages. If you like subtle horror films, you'd like it.
