I do not think this is possible by merely defining the STARTUP
directive.  You will probably need some custom elisp to accomplish
this.  Take a look at org-map-entries to iterate over every headline in
the file and reveal the stuff you want to see. That custom elisp can be
put into org-mode-hook, maybe checking if you are in the right file.

Note: I am just brainstorming here, there might be a solution that is a
lot easier.
