Movie summary


Mirage is a 2004 film made in Macedonia. Svetozar Ristovski intended the film to be a coming-of-age story about a boy's transition from childhood to adolescence in contemporary Macedonia.As part of this coming-of-age process, the protagonist Marko spends much of the film searching for paternal figures such as Paris and his teacher to compensate for his father's inadequacies and become alternative role models for him ... The mysterious Paris, in particular, functions as a wish-fulfilment "mirage" for Marko.Source
