"Rederiet" is one of the most successful soap opera in the history of the Swedish television. The story is about the passenger company (Freja), who operates on the Baltic sea between Stockholm -Åbo. And it takes place both in Stockholm (mostly in the office of the company) and on board m/s Freja. Well. The company (Dahlénrederiet) has for decades been run by the Dahlén family. But when the story begins so are there many people who are trying to gain control over the company, which leads to a constant struggle for the power. As well is it also a constant struggle for higher positions between the personal on the ship and some people use their position to make some extra money. And in the middle of all this problem are the of course many troubles with the passengers or with the ship which have to be solved. So there is (as always in a soap opera), terrible accidents, deaths, murders, smuggling, theft, infidelity, arson, rape, drugs and many other terrible things. But there will also be a lot of love and friendship and maybe some unknown relatives will show up.
