Synopsis

A young actress prepares for the role of a pregnant teenager by interviewing young women about pregnancy and motherhood. In the process, the girls candidly recount their lives and circumstances, shaping the character of Ramona who becomes an ode to the power of collaborative creativity.

Our take

Inventively fusing fiction and documentary, director Victoria Linares Villegas surveys the prevalence of teenage pregnancy in the Dominican Republic with sensitivity. Alert to the ethics of representation, Ramona reimagines the relationship between filmmaker and subject through clear-eyed dialogue.
