In March 2022, a massive wildfire broke out through Uljin in North Gyeongsang Province and Samcheok in Gangwon Province. The fire threatened not only the lives of the residents, but also the countless animals who shared the area. In the aftermath of the disaster, some animals, especially the cats-known for their territorial nature-were left behind. LUCKILY, I SURVIVED tells the story of the volunteers came from across the country to help with the recovery, and the cats rescued from the site. Among them are 'Snim (monk)' who refuses to leave the burned temple, 'Sandle' who suffers severe burns all over its body, and 'Sagye' once cared for by elderly villagers now ailing after the fire. Through their stories, the film sheds light on the devastating impact of a man-made wildfire and the compassionate efforts of people to save vulnerable lives offering a glimpse of hope for coexistence of human and the rest of nature.
