Insights into the Documentary
Behind the Documentary
Directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, You Can See Everything offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of Elizabeth Holmes and her partner, Billy Evans. The project began when the couple invited a film crew to capture their experiences in the weeks leading up to Holmes's federal prison sentence for defrauding investors. Released on October 16, the documentary provides a unique perspective on the aftermath of the Theranos scandal. As it continues its theatrical journey, industry experts are keenly observing whether it will ascend further into A24's top three all-time earners.
