Tomáš Kudrna (*1974) is a Czech documentary filmmaker and cinematographer. He studied film directing at FAMU (2001). He became more widely known for his disturbing films on domestic violence. His credits include Wichterle (2006), a film about the inventor of the contact lens Professor Otto Wichterle (co-production ARTE France, ADR Production, Armada Film, Czech TV), and one of the few Czech documentaries to be televised in over 35 different countries. This drove the author on to graduate from seminars for European filmmakers at the Discovery Campus Masterschool (2007) and to develop other projects. His documentary film All That Glitters (2010) was the first Czech film to be supported by the Sundance Documentary Fund.
