Pretending that you survived one of the most horrific days in history, American or world, just for the sake of getting attention is horrible! This woman obviously has a pathological problem with lying!

This was an amazing, well put together documentary! I have watched it more then once and have recommended it to several friends. What a crazy story, even with reading the title and knowing where its headed it still has a way of surprising you. I found myself starting to believe her, already knowing the truth because how detailed she was. It's also interesting to Google her after you watch it.... It was interesting to hear what she has been up to and finding out that she as of a year ago was working at a law firm but was terminated (according to what I found) after the documentary came out. I definitely recommend this film. I have turned several of my friends onto it that have all enjoyed it.

"The Woman Who Wasn't There" is a psychological thriller that goes inside the mind of history's most infamous 9/11 survivor: Alicia Esteve "Tania" Head, a pathological liar and hideously ugly creature.Who is this, mourning over a real person, but her stories of their romance are completely fabricated -- they never met. Who makes up such a vivid description of crawling through smoke and flames on the 78th floor of the South Tower? Head claimed a degree from Harvard University and a graduate business degree from Stanford University, but those institutions had no record of her. Head claimed she had been working at Merrill Lynch in the World Trade Center, but Merrill Lynch had no record of her employment. Heck, she was not even in the country at the time.And then, she was photographed with New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, former Mayor Rudy Giuliani, and former New York Governor George Pataki. Her story is fascinating and makes for a good documentary, but she is such an ugly person, taking a tragedy and turning it into some sort of selfish game.
