The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley

The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley

In 2013, inventor and entrepreneur Elizabeth Holmes was at the head of a $10 billion company, two years later she is due to appear in court for fraud. What happens when you apply Silicon Valley’s “fake it ‘til you make it” mentality to medical technology that has a real bearing on people’s lives?

This is the shocking and at times unreal story of how one surprising (and rather creepy) person swindled some of the most powerful people in America into believing in her otherworldly ambitions for the healthcare industry.

One of the best documentaries of 2019 so far, only released in the US for now.
