Gefährliche Fracht plot

When the freighter 'Florida' enters a West German harbor and is unloaded, the dock workers discover none of the machines they had expected, but napalm bombs. They discover that French workers were not willing to unload the ship even when it was still called 'Chicago'. The name of the ship was clearly renamed by the Americans on its way to Germany. Now the German workers also refuse to unload the ship. This is a difficult decision for Hein Jensen, as he has only just been hired as a chef and his young family desperately needs his wages. The Americans are trying to exploit this situation by putting pressure on Jensen and changing his colleagues' minds...
