Guten Tag, Ramón

I have to admit I am drawn to bicultural co-productions--and Buen Dia Ramon is a Mexican- German film. The layers of complexity in navigating and directing actors with different cultural and linguistic points of view enriches the movie-viewing experience. "Buen Dia, Ramon" exemplifies this. The alternating points-of-view are not only character-based but culturally based. The actors who play Ramon (Kristyan Ferrer) and the German Ruth (Schöner) are understated, with such charm and poignancy that the incredible friendship becomes credible. Ramon's story is an unexpectedly lyrical tale of perseverance, tenacity, and generosity. "Buen Dia, Ramon" considers how friendship develops despite all sorts of challenges in a deeply affecting manner. This movie is a simple pleasure that no one should miss.

This film reminds the viewer it is the little things in life that are the most important. A very well made film (nothing cheap about it) and the acting and direction are terrific. The bloke who plays Ramon is the perfect character for the role, as are all the other actors and actresses in the film. The film has many different angles to it - cruelty and kindness, wealth and poverty, but kindness certainly is the most powerful aspect of this film. I cannot believe there are so few reviews of this film, but I guess Americans don't think much of films unless they are talking American English (as shown when they dubbed the Aussie classic Max Mad in American accents). Forget English, "Buen Dia, Ramon" could not be made if were not in Spanish and German. The film is so good, after a while you forget you are reading subtitles. This is the best film I have seen all year and it is less than a month to Christmas. A must see for anyone who has a heart. The end will leave you with a warm feeling and maybe a few tears.

I have seen the movie in an international film festival in Mexico, AMAZING!!!

Great rhythm, photography, acting, script very international about migration and opening doors with international language of respect and love.

A Mexican from Durango drop out after 5 times being deported on the way to USA, then a friend convince him to go to Germany looking for an aunt that will help him in Germany. A script where digital maps does not exist and immigrant has instructions included in a notebook paper.

A beautiful story about why and how people migrate, but also how everybody can find help even without speaking same languages.

I liked it very much. As Mexican I laughed and cry very much. It is a story based on real life, what Mexican people think and feel as immigrants in Germany and the contrast with the immigration in the USA where the treatment is violent, racist and non effective, yet in the movie you can appreciate the difference. How he is treated, respected and helped by others without forgetting that the immigration authorities make their job efficiently. I liked very much how the movie shows that when there is love the language does not matter, what matters is feelings and how to transmit love... The actors are natural and Ramon has all the characteristics of a tender and adventurer young man.

Without doubt I do strongly recommend this movie.

This is a fine movie related to the universal immigration "problem", but this film was solved with a very good script and intelligence for a nice history that makes feel great to all the viewers, giving a message of hope and friendship almost forgotten in the actual world ,it is a very, very fine history that you must see, regarding the "humanity" of certain people, leaving every kind prejudging when somebody has another language, history, customs, etc. but with a international "carisma" and a lot of good attitude for the others mainly old people.

The Photo was excellent, the acting was OK. and Ramon it is a real discovery for the Mexican young actors in cinema of this days, the Director is superb in some scenes showing with their "heart" some of the Mexican feelings in a situations as they were filmed in the movie. Is a real surprise to find the cinemas totally sold out in more than 4 weeks since the red carpet for showing to the public here in Mexico City
