Release Details

Sony Pictures India announced that the documentary film 'You Can See Everything' will release in Indian theatres on November 27. The project focuses on disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes and has already performed strongly at the North American box office.

Film Background

Directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, the documentary follows Holmes as she invites a sceptical film crew into her life thirty-four days before she must report to prison for defrauding investors. What starts as a simple portrait turns into a three-year project exploring reality and performance. Fielder becomes personally involved in the story while trying to understand Holmes and her partner, Billy Evans.

Success And Production

The film grossed over eighty million USD in North America and earned a ninety-six per cent critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes. It opened in North America on October 16, earning fifteen million USD in its opening weekend with more than two thousand sold-out screenings. The project is produced by A24 and distributed in India by Sony Pictures Releasing International.

Context

Elizabeth Holmes founded Theranos in 2003, claiming her company could run numerous medical tests from just a few drops of blood. After the company reached a peak valuation of around nine billion USD, investigations revealed major flaws, leading to her 2022 conviction on four counts of investor fraud and a prison sentence of over eleven years.
