Modra2010
Lina is seventeen years old and lives in Toronto with her mother. For one week during the summer holidays she plans to visit her extended family in Modra, a small town in Slovakia. When Lina is dumped by her boyfriend she invites Leco instead, a cute boy from school. Not long after arriving in Modra, Lina and Leco discover they have little in common. To make matters worse, Lina's family mistakenly assumes that a romance is afoot, setting off a chain reaction which leads to an explosion of repressed desire and confusion. Featuring performances by newcomers Hallie Switzer and Alexander Gammal, MODRA is a journey into the heightened emotional chaos of two teenagers, a time when adulthood has not yet arrived, but childhood seems to have already long vanished.

editing was often cut short at wrong times, nevertheless story was captivating.

Ingrid Veninger's film has some memorable moments, but there are not enough. And the moments that do work feel more documentary or like a beautiful capture of the country side of a country which is seldom filmed in such a lovely way. The story itself is limited and has no where to go -- a few scenarios of potential are not pursued.
total waste of time!
