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.
