Elizabeth Holmes documentary renews public focus as she serves prison sentence and partner launches new biotech effort
The A24 documentary "You Can See Everything," directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, follows Elizabeth Holmes during the final month before her scheduled imprisonment and mixes original footage with reenacted scenes. Since its premiere, streaming of the earlier Hulu miniseries, the true‑crime podcast that inspired it, and John Carreyrou’s audiobook have risen sharply. Holmes is currently serving an 11‑year‑and‑three‑month sentence in a minimum‑security women’s prison camp in Texas.
The film also portrays Billy Evans as the dominant partner in Holmes’s household and shows him working on a new blood‑testing startup while Holmes remains incarcerated. Viewers are prompted to consider the blend of reality and artifice in the documentary’s presentation.
