Steve Burns: Alive

What happens when the whole world thinks you’re dead but you’re ALIVE?

What happens when the world thinks you're dead but you're very much alive? From 1996 to 2002, Steve Burns was America's beloved problem-solver on Nickelodeon's Blue's Clues. When he left the show, the internet decided his fate: car crashes, drug overdoses, murder conspiracies. Steve Burns was dead... except he wasn't. In Steve Burns Alive, Burns dissects the bizarre phenomenon of being mourned while alive. This isn't just his story, it's an excavation of how parasocial relationships shape reality, digital mythology replaces truth and what happens when millions of strangers grieve a version of you that never existed.

STEVE BURNS ALIVE is directed by Sivan Battat and produced by Benson Drive Productions.
