With Robin Gaby Fisher, a New York Times bestselling author and Angelo J. Guglielmo, Jr., an author, film director, and film producer.

In 2007, Tania Head was revealed to have fabricated her entire story of escaping the South Tower on 9/11. The authors of the book discuss how and why she managed to fool so many people.  A short introduction to the documentary will be shown. They will also speak about the writing process, getting to know the survivors and the differential between writing a book and developing a documentary at the same time. Two actual survivors from the film will join the presenters for a spirited discussion about Tania's lies, its painful aftermath and how the survivors learned to move forward when they learned the shocking secret.
