The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
The 108 Journey is a 2021 Canadian documentary film directed by Hugo Rozon and Mathieu Perrault Lapierre. The film centres on a trip to India and Nepal which Rozon took in 2019 as a journey of self-reflection following his diagnosis with bipolar disorder. The film's title is a reference to the spiritual significance of the number 108 in Eastern religious traditions such as Hinduism and Buddhism. The film premiered on January 28, 2021, on a dedicated online streaming platform, and was screened theatrically at various film festivals. Mathieu Perrault Lapierre received two Prix Iris nominations at the 23rd Quebec Cinema Awards, for Best Cinematography in a Documentary and Best Original Music in a Documentary. Rozon subsequently created Comme des papillons, a documentary series in which eight Quebec celebrities talk about their own mental health journeys. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
