“Why would I deceive you? There’s no reason for me to do that.”
34 days before going to jail, scam artist Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Theranos, invites filmmakers Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim into her home to record everything about her family life to show people that she supposedly has nothing to hide. Over the course of their recording sessions, Fielder uses his own exaggerated character to try to find cracks in Holmes’ seemingly innocent performance so that he can expose what’s really going on in her mind. However, what eventually unfolds becomes far more bizarre than he initially expected, so Fielder embarks on a quest to get to the bottom of everything he finds by examining and cross-referencing the personal accounts of others who’ve been involved with Holmes in some capacity, and he even recreates certain events with actors so that he can analyze them further.
This is without a doubt one of the best documentaries I’ve ever seen. It effectively utilizes every tool at its disposal in order to thoroughly probe the lives of Holmes and her family, which also involves some incredibly creative and unique methods of documentary filmmaking. Fielder’s brilliant interviewing style, the insane interactions with Holmes and her husband, the exceptional technical aspects such as the cinematography and editing, and the reflexive nature of the documentary’s narrative all tie together to create a captivating experience that transcends the medium and becomes a full on meditation on one’s perception of reality and truth itself.
I highly recommend You Can See Everything to anyone interested in a documentary filled with jaw-dropping moments and crazy revelations that would seem far too implausible for a fictional story, all while presenting its material in riveting and fascinating ways. This is a film that must be seen first-hand in order to fully understand why it’s so special, and there truly isn’t anything quite like it.
