Sgrios/Crash

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.

While a small upper-class minority enjoys the "Roaring Twenties", millions of people live in misery in city slums. Towards the end of 1927, a new financial product from America arrives in Europe: consumer credit. On Black Friday 1929, the dream of a recovery for everyone crashes and burns. US banks withdraw their money and call in their loans.

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.

Ged a tha àireamh beag de dh'uaislean air splaoid tro na "Roaring Twenties", tha na milleanan beò ann an bochdainn ann an slumaichean sna bailtean. Faisg air deireadh 1927, tha goireas ionmhais à Ameireaga a' ruighinn na h-Eòrpa: creideas ceannachd. Chaidh an dòchas gu leasaicheadh cùisean dhaibh uile a sgrios air Black Friday ann an 1929. Tharraing bancaichean Ameireaga an cuid ionmhais air falbh agus dh'iarr iad an iasadan air ais.
