NEED TO KNOW
- ‘You Can See Everything’, a nearly three-hour documentary on Elizabeth Holmes, came out in the US October 16, 2026
- The film by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim is predicted to win an Academy Award
- The documentary will hit Australian cinemas on November 12, 2026
Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s highly anticipated 2026 film about incarcerated founder Elizabeth Holmes, You Can See Everything, hit US cinemas on October 16, 2026, and by all accounts, it’s living up to the hype.
The movie made $15 USD million during its opening, becoming the highest-opening non-musical documentary in 10 years, according to Vulture. Many publications also speculated that it could win an Academy Award. “It’s a movie the rest of the Academy can find without an individual branch hanging a neon sign,” wrote Variety.
The nearly three-hour film is organised into two parts, with the first following Holmes, her partner Billy Evans and their two young kids in the 34 days leading up to her 11-year prison sentence. Fielder and Oppenheim move into the family’s home to capture the footage and conduct interviews.
“Thirty-four days before she’s sent to prison, notorious Silicon Valley founder Elizabeth Holmes invites a sceptical film crew to document her every move,” reads a review of the film on Apple TV. “What begins as an intimate portrait of an enigmatic felon becomes a mind-bending three-year journey into the abyss.”
In January 2022, Holmes was found guilty of one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and three counts of wire fraud involving over $140 million raised from investors. She was found to have lied to investors, doctors and the public by falsely claiming her company Theranos had developed a miniaturised blood-testing machine that could run tests from just a few drops of blood via a finger prick.
“Over and over again, Holmes assures Fielder she has nothing to hide, and over and over again, his probing – if insistently performative – questions catch her in slippery half-truths,” reads a Time review of the film.
“As the camera rolls, Holmes works overtime to convince the filmmakers, and us, of her innocence, with Evans butting in frequently to add his 3,268 cents – 2 would never be enough,” the review continues.
Viewers are surprised by a twist in the second half, when Holmes is in prison. People wrote an article with the headline, “’You Can See Everything’ Ending Explained: Is Elizabeth Holmes a Manipulator or Is She Being Manipulated?”.
Evans told the podcast All-In on October 15 that he hasn’t yet seen the film, which premiered at the Telluride Film Festival on September 6.
“[The context going in] is Elizabeth is facing an 11-year sentence,” Evans told the hosts, according to Variety. “She’s been prevented from speaking publicly in any way, shape or form and this would come out after that period in which she is now allowed to talk. There’s been a lot of media produced on her. There’s been a lot of people who have told her story. That narrative is pretty ossified. The whole idea was, ‘Here she is, see her and make up your own mind’. It’s not to re-litigate the case. Practically, at this time she was not allowed to talk about the case, so she was gonna follow the rules and not talk about the case.”
