scientific discourses contained in the film simultaneously reflected and reinforced scientific paradigms current at the time of the film’s production, enabling the continued subjugation and objectification of Aboriginal people.

      Showcasing SABAR’s field activities, the film provides the audience with an intimate observation of how the scientists interacted with the Warlpiri, Ngarti and Anmatjere peoples and how they conducted the often gruelling tests on them. The audience can see the types of conditions in which the scientists worked and the cordial relations they adopted with the Warlpiri, Ngarti and Anmatjere to ensure access to them as test subjects, eliding on film the tensions that must have been present. What the Warlpiri, Ngarti and Anmatjere thought of these inexplicable rituals remains a mystery. Importantly for the scientists, the film reinforces the proficiency of the scientists in the field and the diversity of their research projects in relation to the question of human evolution. The film gives no evidence that they gave much attention to the conditions being experienced by the Warlpiri, Ngarti and Anmatjere people who at the time were dealing with the trauma of dispossession, massacres and miscegenation. Like in the films of Spencer and Gillen, Aboriginal people were again depicted residing in the ethnographic present. The film implies the Warlpiri, Ngarti and Anmatjere people are culturally and genetically static, little more than repositories of biometric data conveniently available to establish baseline measurements used determine their degree of “authenticity” as genetically untainted individuals.
