A chilling new film by comedian Nathan Fielder and producer Lance Oppenheim will give audiences an unprecedented look into the life of disgraced Silicon Valley executive Elizabeth Holmes, who is currently serving a prison sentence for her role in a fraudulent health technology company called Theranos. The documentary, "You Can See Everything," captures the reclusive former executive's world during the 34 days leading up to her incarceration in 2022.
Theranos had promised to perform medical tests using only a few drops of blood, a claim that proved to be false. The film, which premiered at the Telluride Film Festival in September, provides a stark and often uncomfortable portrayal of Holmes' personal life, as she lives with her partner Billy Evans and their two children in California.
Fielder and Oppenheim were approached by Holmes herself to document her daily routine, resulting in a raw and revealing look into her world. The documentary has been met with critical acclaim and has sparked discussions among celebrities who attended the film's screening, including Zach Cregger, Hannah Einbinder, and Aziz Ansari.
Despite the unsettling nature of the project, Fielder remains committed to sharing Holmes' story, describing the experience as "sad and hard at times," and expressing hope that the film will help others understand the filmmaker's unique perspective.
