Clash of Futures (1918-1939) (Season 1)

Clash of Futures (2018) — original title Krieg der Träume — is a historical drama from Germany, France and Luxembourg that you can watch online on iFILM. Director Jan Peter covers the two decades between the ceasefire of November 1918 and the September 1939 declaration that opened the next war.

Thirteen characters from across Europe — soldiers, artists, politicians, ordinary witnesses — carry the story through the full arc of the interwar years. The 1920s were genuinely a time of possibility: the Bauhaus, women's suffrage movements, jazz, early blueprints for international cooperation. The 1930s dismantled all of it. The series doesn't explain the period with charts and commentary — it inhabits it through people who made choices that, added together, produced catastrophe. Stream Clash of Futures (2018) on iFILM.
