The story
Oh, Ramona! seeks the transformation of Andrew from a teenager into an adult who lives candidly and selflessly his first love story, innocent and uninvolved, alternating with the second, intense and insane story, incapable of making a choice.
What it’s like
A warm, slightly restless coming-of-age comedy about young love, carried by its lead's shifting emotions rather than any grand set pieces. Its vibe is bittersweet and playful, a little awkward and often tender, suited to a relaxed evening or a comfort watch with someone you like. The rhythm follows a teenager's inner life: one romance is sweet, earnest and unguarded, while the other burns hotter and more chaotic, and the film lingers on the push and pull between them as he begins to grow up. Violence is absent, and the intensity is emotional, romantic and frantic rather than dark or cruel. It is for viewers who enjoy youthful romantic comedies with a messy, self-questioning heart and a light, humorous touch.
