Synopsis
Good Day, Ramon (Guten Tag, Ramón, 2013) is a drama by Jorge Ramírez Suárez, available to watch online on iFILM. This German-Mexican co-production follows a young man stranded in a foreign country with no language, no money and no papers.
Eighteen-year-old Ramón has tried to cross into the United States five times and failed every time. His sixth plan points to Germany, where a friend's aunt is supposed to take him in. He never finds her. Ramón ends up sleeping rough in an unfamiliar city, unable to understand a word around him, until he crosses paths with Ruth, a retired nurse who speaks no Spanish.
Kristyan Ferrer and Ingeborg Schöner carry nearly the whole film with almost no shared words — gestures, glances and small daily kindnesses do the work, and that awkward silence lands harder than any dialogue could. A quiet picture about humanity reaching across borders and prejudice. One for viewers who like restrained, unhurried stories. Stream Good Day, Ramon (2013) online on iFILM.
