'You Can See Everything' A24 In Nathan Fielder‘s documentary film about disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes, you can see everything — including Holmes shed a(t least one) tear.
On Wednesday, A24 released the full-length trailer (below) for You Can See Everything from Fielder (Nathan for You, The Rehearsal) and Lance Oppenheim. It’s crazy, it’s confusing, it’s uncomfortable — but that’s Nathan for you. The new film will release in theaters on Oct. 16 following its brief festival tour.
You Can See Everything has joined the New York Film Fest Spotlight Lineup, where it will debut on Sept. 30. The film already enjoyed a surprise world premiere at Telluride — that’s where all of those critics’ pull quotes came from.

The trailer is a bit more revealing than what we got last time from a brief teaser, but like Fielder and Holmes, everything here still presents as an enigma wrapped in a mystery.
The Hollywood Reporter‘s critic, Angie Han, wrote that You Can See Everything “begins as a fascinatingly intimate portrait of a deluded or disingenuous scammer reveals as something even wilder, more ambitious and less predictable, until we’re left to ponder what value a personal truth has at all.”
You Can See Everything is a film in two parts, Han wrote out of Telluride. Its second half kicks into a second fifth gear.
“Its abrupt turns are so deliciously surprising I’m loath to give away too much detail,” Han tip-toed. “But I’ll say broadly that it gets excitingly meta and almost surreal in confronting the fact that Holmes is now in prison, and therefore unable to speak for herself in any length or depth. Control of her narrative has once again slipped outside her hands, and in her absence, the void gets filled by other means.”
You Can See Everything, created in secret over four years by the directors, provides the billionaire-turned-convicted-fraudster a platform to share her side of the Theranos story. Holmes continuously professed her innocence alongside partner Billy Evans before being hauled off to prison to serve an 11-year sentence.
Boiled down to basics, Holmes hyped up her company Theranos as having the ability to run hundreds of health and medical tests using a single drop of blood from a finger prick. Founded in 2003, Theranos eventually reached a $9 billion valuation, but it was almost all smoke and mirrors. Holmes’ proprietary miracle machine, The Edison, could never reliably do what she claimed it could, and the company dissolved in 2018.
