Nathan Fielder's documentary about Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes is generating unprecedented demand in UK cinemas, with tickets selling out ahead of its local release next month.
The film, titled "You Can See Everything," opened in the US to a $15 million (£11.3 million) opening weekend. UK cinema operators now report what they describe as "bonkers" demand for screenings that have not yet begun.
The documentary has already sparked widespread online conversation and meme culture around Holmes, the disgraced founder of the failed blood-testing company Theranos. The film's US performance suggests that interest extends well beyond cinema enthusiasts to a broader audience invested in the Holmes story.
UK cinemas expect the strong American box office to translate into packed houses when the film arrives in British theatres next month. The early ticket sales indicate the documentary may replicate its US success, though final figures will depend on actual attendance across UK venues.
