Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim turn their cameras toward a private chapter of Elizabeth Holmes’ life in “You Can See Everything,” opening in the Philippines on November 18, 2026.

According to Columbia Pictures’ announcement, the documentary follows the Theranos founder during the weeks before her incarceration, after she allowed a small film crew into her home.

The project brings questions about access and self-presentation into the filmmaking process: why would someone who had largely avoided public comment choose that moment to be documented?

From Curiosity to a Documentary

Oppenheim said he first heard that Holmes and her partner, Billy Evans, were interested in having their lives filmed during a night out with friends.

A meeting followed at the couple’s home.

Fielder said his initial interest came from curiosity about what Holmes wanted to say. After meeting her, he felt there was a larger story to explore.

Both filmmakers questioned the timing and what Holmes hoped the project might achieve. Those questions became part of their approach rather than assumptions they could resolve in advance.

The release says they were granted creative freedom and began filming with a seven-person team.

Holmes’ public profile grew through Theranos, which claimed it could perform extensive testing using small amounts of blood.

The company’s practices later came under scrutiny, followed by criminal proceedings.

On January 3, 2022, a federal jury convicted Holmes of one count of conspiracy to defraud investors and three investor-related wire fraud counts, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

The documentary’s announced focus is the period before prison, examining what the filmmakers encountered after gaining access to her personal life.

For audiences familiar with the rise and collapse of Theranos, the film offers a different vantage point: the encounter between a closely watched subject and filmmakers questioning why they were invited inside.
