Luce (2019) dir. Julius Onah.

Starring Naomi Watts, Octavia Spencer, Tim Roth and Kelvin Harrison Jr.

Ten years ago Amy and Peter Edgar adopted their son from war-torn Eritrea, thinking the worst was behind them. Luce has become an all-star student beloved by his community in Arlington, Virginia. His African-American teacher, Harriet Wilson, believes he is a symbol of excellence that sets a positive example for his peers. When assigned to write an essay in the voice of a historical figure, Luce turns in work that makes an alarming statement about political violence.

Join us for a showing of a Newly-Released DVD each month. We'll serve popcorn and enjoy one of the hottest new movies. Movie ratings will vary and this program is intended for adult audiences.
