'In this commentary, Faye Ginsburg contextualizes the importance of the film, Two Laws, noting that its emergence in the world of documentary cinema constituted a paradigm shift, drawing upon Thomas Kuhn's identification of this process within models of scientific progress. She discusses its impact by suggesting its significance as paralleling that of Jean Rouch in the world of ethnographic cinema and she outlines its influence on the emergence of indigenous media in central Australia in the 1980s.'
