“Buen Dia, Ramon” (Good Day, Ramon) is an independent film written and directed by Jorge Ramírez-Suárez. The film is about an ambitious young Mexican travels to Germany to live with his friend’s aunt. However, due to unforeseen circumstances leads Ramon to living on the streets when he cannot find her. He faces a bleak future until he meets Ruth, an 80-year-old retiree, and they develop a close bond. “Buen Dia, Ramon” is arguably one of the finer portrayals of illegal Mexican immigration in recent years. We have seen this subject explored before but never with the subtlety and nuance that Ramírez-Suárez manages to convey in his direction.

The film is currently available on Netflix or for purchase on Vudu, iTunes, Amazon and Google Play. More details on the film’s official website at buendiaramon.com.
