The Lucky Ones, a film by Creative Liquid Productions in cooperation with Washington, DC based Lucky Dog Animal Rescue will premiere January 26, 2014 at 7:30 p.m. at the Arlington Cinema and and Drafthouse in Arlington, VA. The premiere will be hosted by Dr. Katy Nelson, host of "The Pet Show with Dr. Katy" on Washington, DC's News Channel 8.
The Lucky Ones follows the long journey many homeless animals must take to find their forever homes. Production began in June 2013 and recently concluded. The film is a documentary about the animals and the tireless efforts of hundreds of volunteers who find these dogs homes.
Creative Liquid's team traveled to a shelter in Florence, SC to document rescue efforts by local volunteers. The production team also traveled to Puerto Rico to document the Island's homeless dog problem and the unique efforts of rescuers to save these animals. One of the central characters in the film is a dog named Rico, who was plucked from the streets by rescuers. The film follows his journey back to health and his long trip to Washington, DC. Rico is one of the 6000 dogs that Lucky Dog has rescued since it was founded in 2009.
Press attending the premiere will have the opportunity to speak with the filmmakers as well as rescuers who appear in the film. This includes rescuers from Puerto Rico and South Carolina, who will be in Washington, DC for the premiere.
