This Indian action featurette hooks the viewers to the edge of their seats with its hair-raising plot and amazing action sequences. Helmed on a meager budget by a group of film graduates from Bengaluru, The Survivor proves that some movies don't need extravagant margins to make a mark.

And now that the film is being appreciated on global stages, it restores my hope and faith in my dream of becoming an actor." The film tells the story of a young man named Axel Chase (played by Rajath), who acquires a set of skills without actually learning them from a botched medical experiment and uses those skills to survive and tackle the organization that is trying to capture him for it.
