Nathan Fielder, the well-known Vancouver comedian, writer, and director, has unveiled a preview of his upcoming project following the latest season of “The Rehearsal.” The teaser released recently introduces his new documentary focusing on Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Theranos, who faced a fraud conviction in 2022 for misleading claims about revolutionary blood testing capabilities.
Fielder’s collaborative film with documentarian Lance Oppenheim, named “You Can See Everything,” delves into the period leading up to Holmes’s imprisonment in 2023. Oppenheim, recognized for works like “Spermworld” (2024) and “Some Kind of Heaven” (2020), is known for his insightful documentary pieces.
Fielder gained prominence through his show “Nathan For You” on Comedy Central, where he humorously advises entrepreneurs. His earlier appearances on CBC’s “This Hour Has 22 Minutes” endeared him to Canadian audiences with his segments titled “Nathan On Your Side.”
The distribution of “You Can See Everything” is handled by the popular Gen Z studio A24, known for its distinctive visual style. The trailer teases a gripping interaction between Holmes and Fielder, showcasing a tense moment of dialogue and intriguing expressions.
The documentary was presented at a surprise screening during the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado, generating positive reactions from attendees. Critics like film director Daniel Howat and music producer Erik Nordgren have praised the film on social media, highlighting its unique and captivating storytelling.
This project evokes memories of Fielder’s past interviews, such as a memorable exchange with former CBC president Hubert T. Lacroix. “You Can See Everything” is scheduled for a theatrical release in the coming month, promising an engaging and thought-provoking viewing experience.
