Elizabeth Holmes, the former head of Theranos, wanted a documentary about her life. Before she went to incarceration, she talked to the film studio A24. She hoped the film would tell her side of the story.
Two filmmakers, Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, got special access to Holmes before she entered jail. They made a film called “You Can See Everything.” When it opened, the movie had a huge debut and earned $15 million at the box office. The amount was shocking for a documentary. The narrative shows Holmes’s rise and fall, and it talks about her legacy and the controversy around her company. Many people in the audience watched it to decide if they think she is a hero or a fraud.
Even with the money and attention, it is unclear if the film gave Holmes what she wanted. Some think it lets her shape her own legacy, while others say the controversy still follows her. Only time will tell how the story lives on.
