Elizabeth Holmes Gets the Documentary Treatment

Elizabeth Holmes, who was convicted of defrauding the investors in her blood-testing company, Theranos, and is serving 9 years in prison, is the subject of a new documentary.“You Can See Everything,” a film recounting the plight of Holmes, premiered at the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado last night and is directed by Nathan Fielder, the creator and star of HBO’s “The Rehearsal” and “Nathan for You,” along with filmmaker Lance Oppenheim. The film, which runs for 172 minutes, is set to be released next month.As part of the trailer, released by the movie’s distributor, A24. Holmes, 42, is seen protesting her innocence. “I’m not that person, I can promise you that,” she said to Mr. Fielder. “I don’t have anything to deceive you on, of course I’m not deceiving you.” She added, “I’m engaging with you as a human being. Why would I deceive you? There’s no reason for me to do that…I’m always being real.”The film’s synopsis, per A24, reads: “Thirty-four days before she’s sent to prison, notorious Silicon Valley founder Elizabeth Holmes invites a skeptical film crew to document her every move.”“What begins as an intimate portrait of an enigmatic felon becomes a mind-bending three-year journey into the abyss.”According to a report on Deadline Hollywood, Mr. Fielder expressed confusion at the project, saying at a Q&A session: “What I am really excited about is for you to see the movie and tell me what I experienced. I don’t know why they wanted me there. Why am I there?”Holmes was previously the subject of the 2022 Hulu drama “The Dropout,” in which she was portrayed by Amanda Seyfried. A Hollywood feature film, to have starred the actress Jennifer Lawrence, was never made.Holmes, who is incarcerated at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas has two children with businessman Billy Evans. The news of the documentary was first revealed by Hollywood blogger Jeff Sneider in March 2025. Following news of last night’s screening, Mr. Sneider wrote on X, “I broke this story and then spent 18 months being called a liar, a grifter, a fraud, etc. In the end, it turned out to be true.” Holmes responded: “It hurts to be called a fraud when you aren’t.”
