Overview
- The A24 documentary You Can See Everything premiered in a secret Telluride screening and is slated for theatrical release on October 16, with a New York premiere at the New York Film Festival on September 30.
- Filming began in April 2023 when Elizabeth Holmes invited directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim into her home 34 days before she reported to federal prison, and the directors kept the project largely secret over roughly three years.
- The nearly three-hour film centers on prolonged, intimate exchanges—including Holmes’s line “I’m always being real”—and pushes the line between observation and performance by putting Fielder on camera and using staged reenactments with an unnamed A-list actress.
- Reviewers at Telluride gave the film strong praise and immediate awards-season buzz, with critics calling it formally daring and unsettling as it examines who controls a public narrative.
- The film includes footage that reportedly shows Holmes and her partner discussing plans for a “new and improved Theranos,” a development that raises questions about the documentary’s role in shaping public perception and the ethics of extended access to controversial subjects.
