All her life Englishwoman Gladys Aylward knew that China was the place
where she belonged. Not qualified to be sent there as a missionary,
Gladys works as a domestic to earn the money to send herself to a
poor, remote village. There she eventually lives a full and happy
life: running the inn, acting as "foot inspector", advising the local
Mandarin and even winning the heart of mixed race Captain Lin Nan. But
Gladys discovers her real destiny when the country is invaded by Japan
and the Chinese children need her to save their lives. Based on a true
story.
