Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s highly anticipated documentary about Elizabeth Holmes has set a release date in the U.K. and Ireland.
The doc, which offers an intimate look at the Theranos founder’s life a month before she began an 11-year prison sentence for defrauding investors, will hit cinemas in the U.K. and Ireland on Nov. 20. A24 is self-releasing the film.
“When I met her, I remember having this weird experience where she seems so genuine at times,” Fielder said. “But then I’m like, ‘no,’ and clocking and tracking my thoughts and being like, ‘Okay, I know she’s a liar.’ It was a weird mental thing. From there, we were like, ‘Can we roll the dice on something if they were open to having cameras in?’”
Roll the dice they did, and it resulted in Fielder fully moving into Holmes’ house that she shares with her partner, Billy Evans, and their two young children.
“I cannot tell you how weird it was that we were there,” Fielder said. “Truly, to this day, we’re still like — anyways, sorry. I wouldn’t think I’d be the person you would want for your final period. I’m a nice person, I do believe, but I’m not the most comforting. You know what I mean? I think you know.”
