Le Mirage is a Canadian comedy-drama film from Quebec, released in 2015.[1] Written by Louis Morissette and directed by Ricardo Trogi, the film marked Trogi's first time directing a screenplay he had not written himself.[2]

The film stars Morissette as Patrick Lupien, an owner of a sporting goods store who is becoming dissatisfied with the empty consumerism of his day-to-day life and the loss of emotional and sexual intimacy in his marriage to Isabelle (Julie Perreault).[2]

Critics compared the film's themes and plot to both The Decline of the American Empire[3] and American Beauty.[4]

The film was the second-highest-grossing Quebec film of 2015, after Snowtime![5]
