The Cargo Plan at Hamnvik

about 4 h 15 min · 4–7 players

Stevedore Melker Ågren, 41, left the evening shift at Quay 4 in Hamnvik on 12 April 1963 and never came home. Three weeks later, when hold three of the M/S Bjurön was opened in Rotterdam, he lay at the bottom of the hold among the bundles of corrugated cardboard, with his own cargo plan in his jacket pocket and a pencil note saying forty-seven bundles were counted and forty-six stood in the hold. The investigation was written off as a case of the room. In 1968, when the stevedores' shed is torn down for the container quay, the piecework slips for April 1963 come out of a box, and on the last line stands a bundle of seventy-eight kilos that no cargo list recognises. Eleven men in the gang kept silent for five years, and one of them took his story with him to the grave.
