Sidney Stratton is a selfless chemist obsessed with inventing a fibre that never gets dirty and never wears out. Unable to hold down research jobs for being way too demanding when it comes to laboratory equipment, he takes a lowly labourer’s position at a local textile mill, but on the sly he cheerily completes his life’s work.
Bingo! He gives the world a miracle, fashioned into a dazzling white suit. Big business promptly starts falling over themselves to get a cut of his cloth.
