Het Smelt

Veerle Baetens makes a remarkable directorial debut in a film where the acting, particularly the young Eva's performance, stands out. Her talent suggests a promising future in the industry. The movie takes its time to build, leading to a touching and shocking ending that leaves a lasting impact. While the camerawork may be a bit messy, it complements the overall atmosphere of the film. The color grading, especially in contrasting flashbacks and the present, enhances the movie's flow. Kudos to Baetens for her directorial skills, and anticipation builds for what she might bring to future projects.
