Children are more likely to hear Steven (H/A/M), while adults are more likley to see him. I'm also pretty sure that very few people have both seen him and heard him, and those who did most probably didn't realize.

Based on a true story

[WiZ]

I'm a Steven with a PH too!

Does Steven 'appear' in some sort of guise? Is he a performer of some sort? Does he wear a costume? Is he a voice actor? Radio presenter/announcer? Does he work on both adults and childrens programmes? Perhaps he hosts a kid's show on the radio but acts in M-rated film or television?

If he is an actor or similar, is he seen in character by one age group but in reality in the other? Is he reclusive in some way? Does he live somewhere unusual?

Is he healthy and physically normal?

Actually, there's no need to find out any more details about the movie. All that you need to know is that Steven is in it and that it is shown at a museum that is mainly visited by adults.

********SPOILER********
Steven is "on display" at two completely unrelated museums: In 2012 or so, he provided a voiceover for an exhibition at a children's museum where he worked part-time at the time. Years later, as a PhD student, he is filmed at work for a movie that would eventually be shown at the university museum. The museums are in different cities, 300 km (200 miles) apart, and have different target groups, so it's safe to assume that very few people have both heard the recording and seen the footage.

This is a true story - Steven is yours truly in disguise. Why Steven? Because being on display at two museums essentially makes me a work of art , which reminded me of the song "To me you are a work of art" by the infamous Steven Patrick Morrissey.

Thanks for playing, and congrats on the solve, GalFisk!

[GalFisk]

Cool!

I'll remember this one. You're very lucky to work in museums; I remember my time doing it fondly.
