Elizabeth Holmes Documentary 'You Can See Everything' Exposes the Ultimate Startup Con

The new documentary 'You Can See Everything' takes a hard look at Elizabeth Holmes and the Theranos scandal, but its real focus is the culture of deception that enabled her. The film argues that Holmes was not a lone fraudster but part of a broader ecosystem where everyone—investors, board members, journalists, and even patients—was running a con, often on themselves. Through interviews and archival footage, it shows how the pressure to believe in a revolutionary idea led smart people to ignore red flags. The documentary doesn't just retell the rise and fall of Theranos; it asks why we keep falling for these stories. In an era of hype-driven startups and viral misinformation, 'You Can See Everything' is a timely reminder that the biggest con is often the one we play on ourselves.
