Elizabeth Holmes is still fighting her conviction — and now, she’s got a self-styled biochemist backing her from the outside. At the New York Film Festival screening of A24’s new documentary You Can See Everything, a group calling itself ‘Free Elizabeth Holmes’ handed out flyers and t-shirts emblazoned with the slogan: ‘She’s innocent and needs to be free.’ The man behind it? Ryan ElHosseiny, who claims he rebuilt Theranos’ blood-testing tech using trial exhibits and patents. He says the system works. No one else has verified it. Not even the court. Not even the FDA. Not even the medical community. But ElHosseiny insists it’s airtight. He calls himself a self-taught biochemist, ran one of the largest labs in the country, and says he’s been wrongfully convicted too, for shooting into the air during a robbery attempt when he was 18. His story? It’s not just about science. It’s about justice. Or at least, what he believes is justice. He’s also the man behind Just Blood, a campaign that once plastered billboards across Miami, LA, and NYC with Holmes’ black turtleneck image. That same photo appears in the doc. Co-director Nathan Fielder even investigates whether Holmes knew her likeness was being used to promote another company while she’s locked up. ElHosseiny hasn’t seen the film yet. But he’s heard it’s magnificent. He’s watched Hulu’s The Dropout. And he’s furious. Episode 3? ‘The biggest lie I’ve ever seen,’ he said. According to him, the show falsely claims Holmes failed a cancer test. In reality? Her test was correct. So why lie? He doesn’t answer. He walks away. Meanwhile, his petition to overturn Holmes’ 11-year sentence has gathered 346 signatures since last year. It cites AI-powered reconstruction of the technical record. No peer-reviewed study. No lab results. Just belief. And spectacle. Because ElHosseiny isn’t just a scientist. He’s a filmmaker who once offered $1 million to produce a Bad Blood adaptation starring Jennifer Lawrence. He made a fictional courtroom trial using real transcripts. Claims it proves his tech works. The truth? Still untested. The verdict? Still standing. But in You Can See Everything, the line between fact and faith is thinner than a drop of blood.
