This is a story of Gorsch who is training to become a tailor.
One day Gorsch comes across an old treadle machine, some tailoring instruments, and three garments in the attic. He finds out they used to belong to his grandfather who was a tailor. Gorsch, holding these precious objects in his hand, pictures how his grandfather had once crafted garments. Soon imagination turns into admiration, and Gorsch decides to follow his grandfather's footsteps.
Although novice in skill, his process incorporates traditional tailoring techniques with personal experiences and lessons learned from traveling around the world.
Carrying some nostalgia for his hometown wherever he goes, still he dreams to share his stories with people everywhere through creating unique garments.
To achieve his dream, he continues to refine his craft today, in his small studio room somewhere in the corner of this world.
