Hagen

Hagen (Hagen - Im Tal der Nibelungen, 2024) is a German fantasy epic you can watch online on iFILM. Directors Cyrill Boss and Philipp Stennert reach back into the medieval Nibelung saga and tell it from an unusual angle — through Hagen of Tronje, the Burgundian master-at-arms who keeps a fragile kingdom standing while burying a past he can't afford to reveal.

Everything tilts when Siegfried, the reckless dragon slayer, rides into court. King Gunther wants the newcomer's help to win the fierce Valkyrie Brunhild, and every bargain breeds another lie. Hagen is caught between his oath to the crown and the truth of who he really is. Gijs Naber plays him not as a shining knight but as a worn, calculating man who understands exactly what loyalty costs.

The result is grim, physical fantasy with no fairy-tale gloss — mud, blood and old gods instead of polished tournaments. It lands best for viewers who like harsh Norse-flavoured tragedy where the so-called villain carries his own bitter logic. Stream Hagen (2024) online on iFILM.
