The Mirage

A sports store owner becomes increasingly dissatisfied with the emptiness of modern consumerism and the loss of emotional intimacy in his relationship. As he navigates stress leave, a proposed boob job, and financial woes, Patrick Lupien's attempts to fill the void of his existence are met with rejection and discomfort, forcing him to confront the superficiality of his suburban life. With dark humor and satire, The Mirage critiques the societal pressure to conform and the commodification of desire, leaving its protagonist questioning what he truly wants from life.
