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. Their loves and decisions bring the history of Europe, with all its contradictions, to life.

Summer 1918. The First World War has been raging for four years. The fronts have long since become deadlocked; hundreds of thousands have died in the brutal trench warfare. But since the entry of the Americans into the war in 1917, Germany is defeated and the armistice comes into effect. 

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.

Samhradh 1918. Thathar air a bhith a' sabaid sa Chiad Chogadh Saoghail fad ceithir bliadhna. 'S fhada bho dh'fhàs aghaidhean a' bhlàir glaiste; bhàsaich na ceudan mhìltean sa chogadh trainnse brùideil. Ach bho thàinig na h-Ameireaganaich dhan chogadh ann an 1917, fhuair an Caidreabh làmh an uachdair. Tha Arm-staid a' tòiseachadh air an 11mh dhen t-Samhain.
