11 November 1918. The Great War is finally over. A new era is about to start. Amidst the grief, disappointment and old fears, new dreams and hopes are now emerging but so too are new hatreds.

Clash of Futures explores the dramatic era of the 1920s and ‘30s, following the fates of extraordinary men and women using their own diary entries, letters and memoirs. These are people drawn into the war by their convictions, who with their loves and decisions bring the history of Europe with all its contradictions to life.

The economic situation in Europe is precarious. Large swathes of the population are starving. In Italy, there is serious unrest, in Germany communist fighters occupy factories in protest. While the rift between the rich and poor grows wider, the entertainment industry in Berlin is booming.

11 Samhain, 1918. Tha An Cogadh Mòr seachad mu dheireadh thall. Toiseach linn ùr. Am measg caoidh, briseadh-dùil agus seann eagail, tha bruadair is dòchas a' nochdadh às ùr, ach tha agus fuathan ùra cuideachd.
Tha "Eadar Na Dhà" a' toirt sùil air na ficheadan 's na tritheadan, a' leantainn sgeulachdan fir is mnathan sònraichte tro na leabhraichean-latha, litrichean is aithrisean aca fhèin. Tharraing na beachdan aca an fheadhainn seo dhan chogadh agus tha sgeulachd nan co-dhùnaidhean is nan gràdhan aca a' toirt sealladh air eachdraidh thoinnte na h-Eòrpa.
'S ann cugallach a tha suidheachadh eaconamach na h-Eòrpa: tha atachas is cion-obrach a' sìor-dhol am meud. Chan eil biadh aig cuibhreann mòr dhen phoball. Tha aimhreit san Eadailt, agus sa Ghearmailt, tha ceatharnaich Comannach air factaraidhean a ghabhail thairis. Fhad 's a tha a' bheàrn eadar bochd is beartach a' leudachadh, tha gnìomhachas an dibhearsain ann am Berlin a' soirbheachadh.
