( Juste avant l'orage )

In the summer of 1914, Europe, the centre of the universe, is dizzy with power and gorged on the gains of colonial exploitation. It is dazzled by the glow of its own glory, and confident in the promises of a modern world. "Just Before the Storm" holds a magnifying glass to this crucial moment in history, exploring the psyche of European nations at breaking point. It holds up a mirror in which we see the decline of the Ottoman Empire; the spark that would light the powder keg of the Balkans; the tensions between Austria and Hungary, and the premise of the Russian Revolution.
