Today on Depth Perception: Director James Marsh (Man on Wire, Red Riding Pt. II, Wisconsin Death Trip) discusses his feature Shadow Dancer. Though set in 1993 Belfast, with a protagonist blackmailed into informing on her family's IRA cell—a deadly-dangerous balancing act—it's as much character study as thriller. Marsh acknowledges a bent for the macabre, and opens up about being perpetually tagged Man-on-Wire-guy. And breaking the Directors' Secret Oath, he reveals which of his films is his favorite.

Also: Director Rama Burshtein and lead Hadas Yaron discuss Fill the Void, a feature set in contemporary Tel Avi's Orthodox Chasidic community. The story of an 18-year-old girl pressured by her community to marry her recently deceased sister's widower has been interpreted in a variety of ways, from a feminist excoriation of arranged marriages and sexism to a heartfelt defense of the same. Burshtein, who converted from unobservant to Orthodox as an adult, talks about her own background and spiritual jounrey, and her own concept of the film's focus.
