The film centres around one still shot that documents the movements of a city, which is seen in a multi-layered reflection of passing street action. ‘Aura-Gone’ is a serious, mature experimental film. The front of the hospital has the appearance of a giant mirror with double doors set into it. The effect of watching this extended single shot is to gradually discover the layers of real and reflected space occupied by moving people. It has a particularly fascinating complexity.” – John Locke, Cinema Canada
