‘You Can See Everything’ filmmakers make surprise appearance at Dutch premiere

The filmmakers behind the documentary *You Can See Everything* made an unannounced appearance at its Dutch premiere in Amsterdam on Friday, as demand for screenings prompted the festival to add extra showings.

Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim attended the premiere at the Royal Theatre Carré, Nieuws.nl reported. The film is screening three times at the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA); the festival called the audience demand for the premiere a “one-off”.

Nearly 1,500 people sought tickets for the premiere on resale platform Ticketswap, Nieuws.nl reported, citing Carré’s capacity. Two additional screenings sold out within minutes, as did a series of Cineville preview screenings scheduled for the coming weeks.

The documentary follows former Theranos chief executive Elizabeth Holmes for a month before she went to prison. Holmes was convicted of defrauding investors in 2022 and sentenced to more than 11 years in prison. The film is due to open in cinemas across the Netherlands in early January.

It has also drawn strong audiences in the United States, taking $19 million at the box office over a weekend, according to an earlier report on its US release.
