Occupying Ed is something new from Steve Balderson: a romance. Just two characters, one relationship and an anonymous American small town as backdrop. The girl is a free-spirited English chick working as a waitress in a cafe that serves โvegan lasagneโ. The boy is an uptight tax accountant. Itโs an off-the-shelf set-up that is almost iconic of contemporary US indie cinema and this may very well prove to be Steveโs most accessible film since Pep Squad.
