Story

Veil is a swan song of an old tailor. After years of hiding, he chooses to embrace his true self and accepts the sacrifice such honesty demands.

Plot

An aging tailor spends his life creating dresses for others until he gets trapped in his flooding apartment. To stop the burst, he employs all but one piece of fabric: the jewel of his collection. Instead of sacrificing his best dress and containing the water, he tries it on and at last makes peace with himself.
