On the 1st of March 1956, the boat "Brenning" of Sørfold was subjected to a tragic accident at Stadt while on the way home from fishing. Of all of the 20 people aboard the boat, only Nils Evjen survived by rescuing himself from the accident. He tells his incredible story about the situation, while eye witnesses tell their stories from both the sea and the land. And relatives explain how they experienced the tragedy.
