Movie Info

Tania Head's tale of escape from the World Trade Center was miraculous and catapulted her to national prominence when she became President of The World Trade Center Survivors' Network. In a series of stunning interviews, she recounts her journey in chilling detail. There's just one problem: Tania Head was never in the Twin Towers on 9/11 and her entire story is an invention of her prodigious imagination. THE WOMAN WHO WASN'T THERE is a psychological thriller that goes inside the mind of history's most infamous 9/11 survivor.

The Woman Who Wasn't There plays like a by-the-numbers cable true-crime documentary -- which in fact it is.

A singularly unsettling film no less effective for deliberately giving away its twist in the title.

Top Critic
A fascinating nonfiction story of fabrication, even if dinged by an ending that's both too sudden and unsatisfying.
