ALL MY LIFE'S BURIED HERE tells the remarkable story of George Butterworth's life and music - from his early childhood to his final hours in the violence of the trenches on the Somme.   We follow Butterworth on his forays in rural England collecting folk songs with his friend Ralph Vaughan Williams and discover how this informed Butterworth's own music. We hear why Butterworth once described himself as a 'professional morris dancer', and explore what led him to destroy so many of his own compositions before he died. Tracing his journey to its tragic conclusion we follow Butterworth into the trenches of northern France where his participation in increasingly desperate battles on The Somme ultimately cost him his life.  This is an affecting portrait of a gifted young composer and folklorist cut down in his prime.  "Very moving … the finest film account of a composer's life I have ever seen."  - Ralph Vaughan Williams Society Journal
