The new film You Can See Everything has taken America by storm, and next week it will sweep into cinemas across the UK. It follows the disgraced Silicon Valley entrepreneur Elizabeth Holmes in the 34 days before she went to prison for fraud. We hear from Holmes’ former colleagues at Theranos – as well as the lawyer who sued her on behalf of defrauded investors– about their experience of Holmes and what they make of the film. Is she deluded, or lying?
