Netflix Global Top 10: Did not reach Global Top 10

A young robotics engineer in 1995 Japan is betrayed by his girlfriend and business partner, stripped of his company and inventions, and forced into cryogenic sleep --- only to wake up 30 years later in 2025, where he must find a way back to the past to reclaim what was stolen and reunite with his adopted sister, the one person who never gave up on him. The title comes from his cat Pete, who opens every door in the house during winter, stubbornly believing one of them will lead to summer --- a metaphor for refusing to accept that the future is closed. Adapted from Robert A. Heinlein's 1957 sci-
