A dreary, tiresome dirge about passion and dis-passion, if memorably performed by impressive lead Hadas Yaron.

The film unfolds in unhurried dramatic terms that come to take on an almost fatalistic force.

For its clarity and lack of pretension alone, Void stands apart ... beautifully acted

Audience Reviews for Fill the Void

A fascinating look into another culture, an engrossing family drama and, ultimately a coming of age love story. Great, affecting acting, especially by Hada Yaron. This movie is slow moving but really sucks you into its rich, Hassidic world. Remarkable!

Beautifully made film, touching story, accomplished by orthodox filmmaker. Terrific performances by all.
