Nathan Fielder's documentary reveals Elizabeth Holmes' emotional struggles post-conviction

A24 unveiled the trailer for “You Can See Everything,” a 174‑minute documentary that follows Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes from the last days of her freedom into her first weeks behind bars. The film, directed by comedian‑turned‑filmmaker Nathan Fielder and producer Lance Oppenheim, shows Holmes living with a former associate, breaking down in tears, and being interrogated by her husband, former Theranos executive Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani. The trailer promises an unprecedented, intimate look at the fraudster’s fall.

The release comes as the Theranos scandal continues to dominate public conversation about tech hype and corporate deceit. Holmes was convicted in January 2022 on four counts of fraud and sentenced to 11 years in prison, a verdict that sparked renewed interest in how she built a multibillion‑dollar company on false claims. Earlier documentaries, such as “The Inventor” and “The Dropout,” focused on the rise and collapse of Theranos, but none have captured Holmes after her conviction. Fielder’s involvement signals a shift toward a more experimental, possibly satirical approach, while A24’s backing positions the film for awards season buzz.

Industry insiders say the documentary’s secretive production, which began in late 2022, allowed the filmmakers to gain access to Holmes’s prison visits and private conversations that were previously off‑limits. Sources close to the project report that the film includes never‑seen footage of Holmes reacting to the media frenzy and confronting Balwani about his role in the fraud. Critics who have screened early cuts describe the work as “unsettlingly candid” and “a rare glimpse into the human cost of a high‑profile deception.” Holmes’s legal team has not commented, but a spokesperson for Balwani declined to comment on the portrayal.

The documentary is slated for a limited theatrical release in early 2025, with plans for a streaming debut later that year. A24 hopes the film will qualify for Oscar consideration, targeting categories such as Best Documentary Feature and Best Editing. If the film lives up to its trailer, it could reshape public perception of Holmes, moving the narrative from headline‑grabbing scandal to a more nuanced portrait of a woman whose ambition led to one of the biggest frauds in Silicon Valley history. The upcoming release will also test how audiences respond to a documentary that blends investigative journalism with a filmmaker known for comedy.
