Inside the Untold Drama: Crafting a Trump vs. Anti-Trump RomCom with Erik Bork
Ever wondered how you’d craft a romantic comedy set against the charged backdrop of a politically polarized America? What if your lead characters were divided not just by heartbreak or awkward meet-cutes, but by their allegiances to one of the most contentious figures in recent history? Well, that’s exactly the tightrope walk Erik Bork takes on in his latest feature, The Elephant in the Room. This isn’t your typical love story. It’s a sharp, edgy indie rom-com where the biggest hurdle might just be the election results—and yes, it dares to tackle the cultural chasm between a progressive woman and her potential Trump-supporting beau.
