The MIRAGE Film Festival is a year-round initiative and international film festival dedicated to the art of cinema and the craft of filmmaking in Oslo, Norway.^[1]

Set in October, the festival presents a curated selection of films that push the boundaries of cinema; including films awarded at major festivals such as Cannes, Berlinale, Venice, Rotterdam, Visions du Réel, and CPH:DOX.

MIRAGE Professionals is the festival's industry branch and all about the craft and process of filmmaking, with a special focus on creating a hub in Oslo for the professionals behind the collaborative art of cinema— editors, cinematographers, sound designers, filmmakers, and all the creatives.
