Plot Summary

A psychological suspense thriller about the World Trade Center Survivors' Network and their former President, Tania Head. After meeting Director Angelo J. Guglielmo, Jr., Head commissioned a documentary based on her work with the WTC Survivors' Network. Filming began, and the world's most famous 9/11 survivor told her story with spellbinding intensity. There was only one problem: Tania Head was never in the Twin Towers, and her epic story of grief was a complete fabrication. Written by Angelo J. Guglielmo, Jr.

Edit
Trivia Originally the documentary was supposed to be a general retrospective of 9/11 survivors. As the producers met with people, many of them suggested the producers interview Tania Head due to her dramatic experience. Only after the interviews with Tania were recorded did the news officially break that Head's entire story, including her interviews for the documentary, was false. The producers immediately changed the focus of the documentary to Tania Head. See more »

Quotes Tania Head: Just before 8:30, I get a phone call and it was Dave. He said he was just gonna go get a cup of coffee and asked me if I wanted to meet him and I said I was just about to go into a meeting and I couldn't do it. I said I love you and I'll talk to you later. And that was the last time I ever spoke to him.
