Nathan Fielder has taken an unexpected approach to telling the story of Elizabeth Holmes in the new documentary You Can See Everything. The first full trailer shows Fielder getting unusually close to the former Theranos CEO, including scenes filmed inside her home shortly before she reported to federal prison.
The documentary was kept largely under wraps before its surprise presentation at the Telluride Film Festival. Directed by Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, the film follows Holmes during the final 34 days before she began her prison sentence, while also becoming a much larger three-year filmmaking project.
The Trailer Shows Fielder Asking Tough Questions
The new trailer quickly makes clear that Fielder is not simply observing Holmes from a distance. He directly questions her about the Theranos scandal, her conviction and her own understanding of how she ended up in prison.
At one point, Fielder asks Holmes whether she believes she did anything wrong. She responds that she did not. He then presses her about how the situation reached that point, prompting Holmes to admit that she does not fully understand how she arrived there.
The exchange gives the documentary a tense quality, particularly because Holmes is being questioned inside the environment of her own family life rather than in a traditional interview setting.
Billy Evans Faces Questions Too
The trailer also turns attention toward Billy Evans, Holmes’ longtime partner and the father of her children. Fielder questions Evans about his relationship with Holmes and whether he was concerned about being deceived himself.
The conversation becomes particularly uncomfortable when Fielder asks Evans about his family’s wealth and whether that affected the relationship. Evans responds that wealth exists on different levels, leaving the exchange open-ended rather than neatly resolving the question.
These moments suggest that the documentary is interested not only in Holmes herself but also in the people closest to her during a crucial period of her life.
Holmes Becomes Emotional on Camera
One of the trailer’s most striking moments arrives near the end, when Holmes talks about how difficult it was for her to allow people to see her cry. The film then captures her becoming visibly emotional as a tear runs down her face.
The moment changes the tone of the trailer. Much of the footage is built around uncomfortable questions and unusual access, but the emotional scene suggests that the filmmakers were also interested in the personal side of Holmes during the period immediately before her incarceration.
That combination of confrontation and intimacy is central to the film’s unusual appeal.
Why You Can See Everything Is Getting Attention
Holmes has already been the subject of extensive media coverage, documentaries and dramatized portrayals following the collapse of Theranos and her criminal conviction. You Can See Everything takes a different route by giving cameras access to her private life shortly before she entered prison.
The film is also an unusual project for Fielder, whose work is known for blurring the boundary between documentary filmmaking, comedy and constructed situations. His presence inside Holmes’ home makes the project feel different from a conventional biography or interview-driven documentary.
The film runs for 174 minutes and is directed by Fielder and Oppenheim.
When Will You Can See Everything Be Released?
You Can See Everything is scheduled to open in theaters on October 16, 2026. A24 released the full trailer on September 23, following the film’s surprise Telluride debut and an earlier teaser that generated significant online attention.
For viewers who have followed the Theranos story for years, the documentary offers something different: direct access to Holmes during a period when her personal and legal circumstances were changing dramatically.
The trailer leaves plenty unanswered, but that appears to be deliberate. Rather than presenting a straightforward retelling of the Theranos scandal, You Can See Everything seems designed to leave viewers questioning what they are seeing and how much of Holmes’ story can ever be fully understood.
