9/11 Millionaire Widows

9/11: Millionaire Widows

A widow of a 9/11 victim

Billions of dollars of compensation were handed out to the relatives of the 9/11 victims. This money was meant to ease the suffering, but for many it has actually ruined their lives for a second time. This film relates four emotive stories: from the broken family torn apart, to a single mother's desperate fight for recognition; and from a woman's battle with her partner's relatives, to a scorned ex-wife whose fire-fighter husband left her for the newly rich widow of his dead colleague.
