"This [Lukas' Moment] is the first Indonesian observational documentary ever to be made, and it avoids a voice-over and uses many long takes, in order to give access to the voices, feelings and activities of these young West Papuans, in as unmediated a way as possible.
Trained as an anthropologist, Danusiri has now produced a substantial body of innovative work that is both culturally sensitive and pioneers not only new modes for documentary in Indonesia, but introduces a kind of current affairs timeliness, relevance and immediacy, even though the issues Danusiri deals with are not generally addressed on Indonesian television."
