Documentary 'You Can See Everything' Shows Nathan Fielder Living with Elizabeth Holmes Before Her Prison Sentence

Filmmakers Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim spent 34 days in the home of former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes and her partner Billy Evans shortly before Holmes began an 11-year prison term for fraud. The resulting three-hour documentary, titled You Can See Everything, debuted at the New York Film Festival and will be released in theaters on Oct. 16.

The film follows the couple’s daily life and includes Holmes’s first extensive public comments in years, prompting viewers to question the reliability of her statements. In a post-screening Q&A, Fielder said he initially found Holmes “genuine at times” but later felt she was “a liar,” describing the experience as a “weird mental thing.”

Fielder and Oppenheim, who met after Oppenheim cold-emailed Fielder about a previous documentary, arranged the project through A24, which allowed them to stop filming if no story emerged. Both directors noted that they often disagreed on how to interpret moments captured on camera, leading them to explore the cognitive dissonance among the crew as a narrative element.

Holmes is heard in the film asserting, “I don’t have anything to deceive you on. Of course I’m not deceiving you. I’m engaging with you as a human being.” The filmmakers said this and other ambiguous scenes shaped the documentary’s structure.

You Can See Everything marks Fielder’s feature-directorial debut, building on his background in comedy-driven documentary work such as HBO’s The Rehearsal and Showtime’s The Curse. Oppenheim, known for documentaries about niche communities, co-directed the project. The filmmakers asked audiences to keep the film’s twists confidential until its theatrical release.
