Then maybe Boîte Noire https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Box_(2021_film)

or

Das Leben der Anderen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lives_of_Others

I can't think of many contemporary American films that exactly fit the bill (which I interpret as: enthralling, everyday dialogue, without a pop singer's voice on the soundtrack competing for attention, or production like a music video).

Maybe Gone Girl, or Marriage Story, or something.
