Nathan Fielder's secret Elizabeth Holmes documentary opens next month

By now you may have heard arguably the biggest news out of the Telluride Film Festival this weekend: Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim have covertly made a documentary about Elizabeth Holmes, shot just before she began serving her prison sentence in 2023. According to a plot synopsis, “What begins as an intimate portrait of an enigmatic felon becomes a mind-bending three-year journey into the abyss.” The critics who got to see the nearly three-hour documentary during its Telluride premiere on Sunday night have received it quite warmly; there aren’t enough reviews yet on Rotten Tomatoes for there to be a consensus, but all seven of them are positive. 

What we’ve been able to see so far is a first short teaser, which presents Holmes and Fielder in what is essentially a staring contest. Fielder may have finally met his match, as far as finding a subject that is unwilling to blink, both literally and figuratively. 

According to the trailer and to A24’s press site, You Can See Everything is slated for release in October; a more confirmed release date hasn’t been officially offered yet. In any case, that makes for a pretty impressive month for Oppenheim; his film Primetime just opened at Venice this weekend and opens in theaters in the U.S. on September 25.
