Thelma is 2011 Philippine drama film released by Star Cinema with Maja Salvador portraying the title-role.

Thelma is a delinquent, tomboyish high school student from an impoverished family in Ilocos Norte who uses her running abilities to get away with her occasional thefts.

Thelma continues her studies and receives formal training as an athlete, improving her grades while winning the Palarong Pambansa held in Laoag.

She develops a rivalry with Lexi, an arrogant co-athlete and national record-holder, while striking a relationship with Sammy, who is seeking a job as a seaman to get out of poverty.

Maja Salvador underwent training by a national track star and Survivor Philippines castaway Elma Muros and her husband Jojo Posadas for her role as a runner in the independent film.
