Here is the press release from NYFF:
Film at Lincoln Center has added the New York premiere of Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s You Can See Everything to the Spotlight section of the 64th New York Film Festival. Presented by Film at Lincoln Center in partnership with Rolex, the 64th New York Film Festival will take place from September 25 through October 12. The film will debut on September 30 at Alice Tully Hall with Fielder and Oppenheim in attendance.
In a seemingly endless parade of documentaries, dramatizations, and exposés, Elizabeth Holmes, the inventor of a purported “miracle” medical device at her company Theranos, and sentenced to prison for fraud, has been the face of Silicon Valley hucksterism. Yet in this astounding new film from Nathan Fielder (The Rehearsal and The Curse, NYFF61) and Lance Oppenheim (Primetime), created in secret over the past four years, Holmes becomes an entirely different kind of camera subject. Inviting Fielder into their home to live with them and start recording their lives just 34 days before her incarceration, Holmes and her romantic partner, William “Billy” Evans, profess her innocence on their own, intimate terms. Is this all an elaborate ruse? Or is something even stranger afoot? Fielder and Oppenheim have created a fascinating portrait of a relationship, decimating notions of objectivity in documentary while also interrogating the limits of fiction. This blistering, head-spinning—and frequently hilarious—high-wire act of self-reflexivity keeps changing shape and uncovering surprises as it swerves headlong into the unknowable. An A24 release.


This movie, that basically no one not directly involved in its production even knew existed a week ago, has suddenly become one of the most hotly-anticipated movies of the entire year. Amazing.
