Glory and Dream is a four-part documentary, which describes the most turbulent period of American society from 1932 to 1972.

Throughout these 40 years, we have experienced historical events such as World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War and civil rights movement. With the debut of Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and other political figures, history is like a huge wheel, moving forward rapidly.

The pace of the times is so fast that every generation of American citizens, every political leader, every parade and movement contains small dreams in the hearts of small and weak individuals. They may be extreme, narrow-minded and selfish; Perhaps too idealistic, perhaps vacillating, but small dreams and glorious sense of mission make everyone churn under the big wave of this society. This is an era of surging emotions.

The tragic Pacific War established the dominant position of the United States in the world, and the black civil rights movement intertwined with blood and tears changed the deep-rooted racial discrimination. The Vietnam War, which plunged deeper and deeper into the quagmire, sacrificed tens of thousands of American soldiers. From the birth of the atomic bomb to the birth of the hydrogen bomb, the continuous escalation of nuclear weapons not only shows the strength of the country, but also brings cruel nuclear pollution, radiation and endless future troubles to innocent civilians. If history is a cycle, then we are the most insignificant individuals in countless cycles. However, the power of individual thoughts, wishes and actions keeps gathering and erupting, which brings a new chapter in history.

Peace may be an eternal topic for mankind, because as long as there are national boundaries and races, there will be competition for resources and energy, and there will always be wars of human greed. However, every war will be lost by a more powerful force eager for peace. In this era full of dreams and yearning for glory, justice and peace are eternal themes!
