## Key points

- The film questions how Holmes understands truth and language.
- Theranos’s blood-testing device did not work as promised.
- A whistleblower challenges the film’s interpretation.

## Summary

The article argues that *You Can See Everything* is less a definitive verdict on Elizabeth Holmes than an unsettling experiment about truth, self-deception and how people interpret one another. The film raises the possibility that Holmes may struggle to understand language and social cues, while reminding viewers that Theranos misled people about a blood-testing device that did not work as promised.

A key scene has director Nathan Fielder show Holmes and her partner Billy Evans the “Who’s on First?” comedy sketch; Holmes says she did not understand its wordplay, and Evans says her brain works differently. The film also revisits Holmes’s claim that the Theranos machine “can” run tests, and her explanation that she meant the machine had potential even though testing had not caught up. The article notes that Holmes has no public diagnosis and cites whistleblower Tyler Shultz as challenging the film’s suggestion that neurological differences explain her statements.
