Full Cast and Crew
Andrea Bagney
Andrea Bagney was born in Madrid in 1986 in a half Spanish, half Polish-American family, and studied Modern History and Politics in Royal Holloway (University of London). Always a writer, she experimented in different fields before finally deciding to become a filmmaker. Her first short film, which she shot in Qatar (Max: a Doha Story), was self-produced and served as a school for her. After the birth of her two children, she decided to make her first feature no matter what: Ramona was written with the conviction that it would be filmed even if the resources were very scarce. Delayed by Covid, Ramona was finally shot in 2021 in a surreal, post-pandemic Madrid.
