When It Melts is a 2023 drama film written and directed by Veerle Baetens in her directorial debut. It is loosely based on the 2016 novel The Melting by Lize Spit. The film stars Charlotte De Bruyne and Rosa Marchant, and explores themes of childhood trauma, the influence of family dynamics, and the struggle for personal identity.

Production

Production for When It Melts was initially in the hands of the production company Menuet. After it ceased to exist in 2017, Savage Film, led by Bart Van Langendonck and Sarah Marks, took over. In early 2020, the film project was presented at the Berlinale production market, where it won the ArteKino International Prize. The film also received financial support from the Netherlands Film Fund and the Flanders Audiovisual Fund.

In August 2021, filming commenced across various locations in Belgium, spanning two months. Actress Veerle Baetens made her directorial debut with the project, after five years of preparation, which included working with Maarten Loix to adapt Lize Spit's novel The Melting (Het smelt) into a screenplay. The film was initially scheduled for release on November 24, 2022, but was postponed to the fall of 2023.
