Episode 3: Europe on the Brink

May 3, 2007 • 60 min

It is the eve of the First World War and Kahn's photographers are travelling from the West, where they capture the timeless values of traditional rural lives, to the East, where they witness the emerging force of nationalism – a force that would plunge Eastern Europe, and then the world, into war.
