Nathan Fielder Filmed Elizabeth Holmes as She Left for Prison

'You Can See Everything,' co-directed by Lance Oppenheim, premiered as an unannounced secret screening at the Telluride Film Festival.

Nathan Fielder spent the days before Elizabeth Holmes reported to federal prison filming inside her house. The first full trailer for the documentary that came out of it, “You Can See Everything,” went online September 23, 2026, IndieWire reported. The outlet credited the film's image to A24.

If you want a seat, the calendar's tight. Select theaters already have tickets on sale. Nationwide ticketing opens October 1, 2026, and the film reaches theaters Friday, October 16, 2026, IndieWire reported.

Fielder co-directed with Lance Oppenheim. He embedded with Holmes — the founder of the blood-testing startup Theranos — and her family as they got ready for her departure for an extended prison sentence. Her husband, Billy Evans, appears throughout the trailer, the outlet reported.

The film turned up at the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado as a secret screening. That's how most people learned it existed at all.

IndieWire's own review, quoted in the trailer post, praised the film's “looming ambiguity.” The outlet wrote that the directors let their subjects give themselves away by holding the silence and waiting for someone to fill it. That's the method Fielder has built a career on. Here it's aimed at a woman whose credibility is the point of the film.

Here's the comp nobody at A24 will run in an ad: Holmes has been through this twice already. Hulu dramatized her with Amanda Seyfried in “The Dropout,” Alex Gibney made the documentary “The Inventor,” and neither production had a camera in her living room in the days before she reported, or a comedian behind it whose whole form is watching people perform themselves.

What the trailer doesn't do, on IndieWire's account of the film, is settle anything. The praise coming out of Telluride is for the withholding. It's for what the filmmakers decline to resolve about the person in front of them. That's an unusual thing to sell a ticket on, and it appears to be working.

Next stop is the New York Film Festival on September 30, 2026, sixteen days before the theatrical run starts.
