00:00For better or for worse, war is an amazing feeling.
00:04Part of me wanted out.
00:06I was sick of it.
00:07But Margaret didn't seem to feel the same way.
00:12She was the first camera woman for television in New Zealand.
00:15She looked so rock and roll 24-7.
00:18A female cameraman in a male dominated world,
00:21that definitely gave her a charge.
00:23She did, she dressed, she said whatever she wanted
00:26and it was something that people were in awe of.
00:29It was my big ambition when I was a kid to be a paratrooper.
00:32She was just too cool for me, that's for sure.
00:35She got on so well with military people,
00:38because she was so ballsy.
00:40Margaret never made anything about being a female,
00:42she just did it.
00:43Look at me, here's the camera, this is what I do.
00:48The most valuable thing that she could imagine
00:51was being where history is being changed.
00:53At a certain point, sex, drugs and rock and roll
00:56just wasn't enough.
00:59War was the ultimate drug.
01:03I remember telling Margaret,
01:04there's only so much Russian roulette you can play.
01:08Margaret and Mark are seated in the back of the van,
01:11I'm seated in the front passenger seat.
01:14And I'm looking left and right and all of a sudden...
01:16I saw some, like, flash.
01:20Yeah, mum rang and told me
01:21that she'd been shot in the face by a sniper.
01:24Yeah.
01:26Even with her injuries,
01:27she was driven by some other fuel source
01:29than most people are.
01:31She said, I am going back
01:34and nobody is going to stand in my way.
01:39She was fearless.
01:41You could sense that behind all of that
01:43came from a place of anger and defiance.
01:47I'd ask her things about her past
01:48and she said, I don't remember.
01:50She was very empathetic with people.
01:53She liked filming people,
01:54that's the impression I have.
01:56Our stories and Margaret's pictures
01:59forced our democracies not to turn away.
02:05We were friends for 25 years
02:07and I would say soulmates.
02:16You felt better in her presence.
02:18You could sit with her
02:20and you felt like when you got up,
02:21you took something already.
02:27It doesn't matter how close you come to death,
02:29today I'm just going to be having a lot of fun.
