Berth 24 describes the 'turnaround' of a ship - the SS Bravo - which plies with freight and passengers between Hull and Gothenburg. For an army of men, from river pilot to stevedore, each turnaround is a test of professional skill, and a race against time if tides are to be caught and schedules kept.
The film tells the story of what this means to George Moore, a foreman docker, and to a Swedish passenger who comes to England as a buyer of our goods.
