Review For Movie Fill the Void

This is an extraordinary first film, nerve-tingling in its intensity, and assembled with a finesse and control even the great Austrian director Michael Haneke might envy.
Trevor Johnston-Time Out

Beautiful and mysterious, the[se] first glimpses are an ideal primer for the Israeli film, which never rushes to spell out the meanings of its subtle and quiet moments.
Stephanie Merry-Washington Post

It's an artful, character-driven drama that constitutes a minor miracle of empathy.
Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Burshtein creates a one-of-a-kind portrait that nonetheless transcends its setting, and even its worldview; the dynamics are global.
John Anderson-Newsday

Burshtein has achieved a gripping film without victims or villains, an ambiguous tragedy drawing on universal themes of love and loss, self-sacrifice and self-preservation.
Peter Keough-Boston Globe

[Burshtein] vividly depicts a clannish culture that is likely to feel foreign and perhaps off-putting to generations that came of age in a progressive post-feminist era.
Susan Wloszczyna-Chicago Sun-Times

Few films in recent memory better capture the heartbreak of loss, the agony of indecision or the burden of familial duty.
Tom Clift-Concrete Playground

An intelligent and moving examination of the possibilities of personal freedom within the strict confines of religion and tradition.
Mark Kermode-Observer [UK]

There is perhaps something ultimately undeveloped about it, but the film is a well acted, well presented piece of work.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]

Fill the Void is as well-versed in the rules of matchmaking as a Jane Austen novel, and it bends them as artfully as wicker.
Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph

Its last five minutes are so extraordinarily enigmatic, you're certain the subject of innocence, guilt and attraction has been addressed on a deep level.
Antonia Quirke-Financial Times

A fascinating and emotionally gripping drama with a sharply written, understated script and a pair of terrific performances from Hadas Yaron and Yiftach Klein.
Matthew Turner-ViewLondon

A nuanced kitchen-sink depiction of an Israeli Hassidic community which zeroes in on the dilemma of an 18-year-old girl named Shira.
Sophie Monks Kaufman-Little White Lies

With honesty and sensitivity, this Israeli drama takes us into an unfamiliar subcuture, letting us experience aspects of life in an Orthodox Jewish community that we've probably never even imagined before.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com

A warm, watchful slant on marital mores in an ultraorthodox Jewish community.
Kevin Harley-Total Film

In the end, it's hard to determine whether Burshtein is celebrating or critiquing the insularity and strict traditions of the community that she herself joined in her 20s - but presumably that's part of the point.
Hannah McGill-The List

Although it lacks a little of the emotional heft of Haifaa al-Mansour's work, it's a well acted and delicately told tale.
Angie Errigo-Empire Magazine

..heir funny hats and weird hairdos don't camouflage the recognisable human characteristics we readily understand. For me, that is the film's most enduring and most important message
Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile

Eventually reveals itself to be a sort of Jane Austen romance -- a tale of matchmaking and marriage motivated by the ritual and decorum of Haredi Judaism in modern Tel Aviv rather than by the social strictures of 19th-century England.
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

Burshstein has managed a small miracle with his gentle film ... . A movie about matters of faith that manages to be neither condescending nor smug ... a surprisingly accessible and satisfying experience.
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

Using the advantage of personal familiarity with an insular religious community of Haredi Jews in Tel Aviv, Rama Burshtein has created a small jewel of a narrative.
Marjorie Baumgarten-Austin Chronicle

It's the movie's attention to detail that sells it, especially because the humanity of all the characters shines through.
Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

Buhrstein, whose assuredness belies the fact that this is her first film, captures this dilemma mainly through Shira's eyes.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune

A frustratingly bland look at the customs of a complex subculture.
Josh Bell-Las Vegas Weekly

Movie Overview For Fill the Void

Eighteen-year-old Shira is the youngest daughter of the Mendelman family. She is about to be married off to a promising young man of the same age and background. It is a dream come true, and Shira feels prepared and excited. On Purim, her twenty-eight-year-old sister, Esther, dies while giving birth to her first child, Mordechay. The pain and grief that overwhelm the family postpone Shira's promised match. Everything changes when a match is proposed to Yochay-Esther's late husband-to a widow from Belgium. Yochay feels it's too early, although he realizes that sooner or later he must seriously consider getting married again. When the girls' mother finds out that Yochay may marry the widow and move to Belgium with her only grandchild, she proposes a match between Shira and the widower. Shira will have to choose between her heart's wish and her family duty. She will find out that the void which she must choose exists only within her heart.
