- Description
Award-winning camera operator Margaret Moth always headed towards the action; the first camerawoman to work for New Zealand state television, she left Aotearoa in 1980 to work for the CNN and cover war zones in the Middle East and Sarajevo. Even a life-changing injury from sniper fire gave her little pause. Actor Lucy Lawless (Xena, My Life is Murder) takes her first feature directing credit with this documentary, which explores Moth's complex back story and her desire to "be part of history"...
