The film chronicles the tumultuous years in the United States from 1919 to 1932, highlighting the aftermath of World War I and the presidency of Woodrow Wilson, who struggled to garner support for the League of Nations. It details the shift in public sentiment towards a desire for a return to normalcy, leading to the election of Warren G. Harding, who promised conservative governance. The film discusses the economic prosperity of the 1920s, marked by technological advancements and the rise of consumerism, but also addresses the struggles of farmers and the eventual stock market crash of 1929 that precipitated the Great Depression. As discontent grew, Franklin D. Roosevelt emerged as a new liberal leader promising recovery through government intervention, marking the end of the conservative era.
