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.

Each year, the festival hands out its acclaimed MIRAGE Sculpture Award for Editing, Cinematography, Sound Design, and Directing.

A one-person jury decides the award as a recognition from one artist to the other.

Filmmakers who have participated to the event include Victor Kossakovsky, Payal Kapadia, Albert Serra, Pierre-Yves Vandeweerd, Tsai Ming-liang, Emilija Škarnulytė, Verena Paravel, Lucien Castaing-Taylor.[2]
