Modra is a Canadian drama film, directed by Ingrid Veninger and released in 2010. The film stars Hallie Switzer as Lina, a Canadian teenager visiting her extended family in Slovakia with her friend Leco (Alexander Gammell).

Switzer is Veninger's real-life daughter, and many of the extended family roles were played by Veninger's own real-life family.

The film premiered at the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival. It was subsequently named to TIFF's year-end Canada's Top Ten list for 2010.
