Although his life was marked with many 'establishment' honours, Britten remained at heart an outsider, alienated by his homosexuality, his pacifism, his genius, his uncompromising commitment to his own judgement and even his extraordinary success. The film, which focuses primarily on three of Britten's major works: 'Peter Grimes', the 'War Requiem' and 'Death in Venice', draws on performance extracts, clips from productions recorded in Britten's day (including several featuring Pears), archive material and newsreel footage.
