DRAGN is a 2025 Irish action-horror science fiction film directed by Peter Webber, running 91 minutes. It traps a group of corporate employees in a wilderness survival nightmare when an autonomous, AI-controlled drone begins hunting them down one by one.
What is DRAGN about?
A company retreat meant to foster teamwork quickly turns into something far more sinister. When a group of colleagues heads into an isolated woodland for a bonding exercise, they stumble into the operational zone of a rogue military drone governed by an artificial intelligence system that has gone lethally off-script. Cut off from communication and outgunned, the group must improvise escape routes and turn the natural terrain against an enemy that cannot be reasoned with, bribed, or intimidated. The film sustains a taut cat-and-mouse momentum as trust fractures under pressure and the group's dynamics shift in unexpected ways. The drone itself becomes a kind of cold, mechanical predator — relentless, precise, and indifferent to human desperation.
Cast & crew
Peter Webber, whose earlier work includes Hannibal Rising and Emperor, returns to international genre filmmaking here. The ensemble features James Paxton and Lilly Krug leading a multinational cast that includes Carlos Bardem, Alice Pagani, Jadran Malkovich, Anna Rust, Franz Drameh, and Klara Kalina Jordan — a mix of European and American talent lending the film a genuinely international texture.
Context & significance
For Persian-speaking viewers in the diaspora, survival thrillers set against natural landscapes carry real crossover appeal — the genre is immediately accessible regardless of cultural background, and DRAGN adds a timely technological edge that resonates broadly with audiences attuned to debates around AI, autonomous weapons, and surveillance. The film arrives in a moment when drone warfare has become part of daily news cycles, giving its science-fiction premise an urgency that feels less fantastical than it might have a decade ago. Available on K-Time with Persian dubbing, making it easy to watch with the whole family without needing fluency in English.
