The Inn of the Sixth Happiness is a historical drama based on the inspiring true story of British missionary Gladys Aylward, portrayed by Ingrid Bergman. The film follows Gladys' journey to China in the 1930s, where, despite initial struggles, she becomes a beloved figure in a remote village. As an innkeeper at the "Inn of the Sixth Happiness," she teaches travelers about Christianity and wins the respect of the local community.
Her life takes a dramatic turn when war breaks out between China and Japan, and she must lead 100 orphaned children across dangerous mountains to safety. Through courage, faith, and determination, Gladys becomes a symbol of selflessness and perseverance, risking her life for the well-being of others.
Sekers Silk Mills played a role in the film's costume design by providing the luxurious fabric for the iconic red kimono worn by Ingrid Bergman’s character. This silk garment became an important visual symbol in the film, reflecting the cultural setting and adding to the film's rich visual storytelling.
