Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s A24 documentary “You Can See Everything” is ruled ineligible for the Directors Guild of America’s top feature-film directing award this season. Multiple outlets report that the DGA allows the directors to be considered only under its documentary category, not the theatrical feature film prize.
Across the coverage, outlets frame the decision as a setback within the film’s awards campaign. ComingSoon.net and Variety connect the ruling to the film’s growing visibility amid Oscar buzz, while the Los Angeles Times emphasizes the formal eligibility result—what category the film can and cannot be submitted for. All accounts describe the same eligibility outcome and the same directing categories.
The reporting focuses on confirmation from a DGA representative and the film’s status in the awards pipeline. No outlet’s summary indicates a dispute about the film’s content; instead, the emphasis stays on the administrative eligibility criteria and where the film can compete.
