Noctuidae

An unhappy seamstress receives a strange commission: she is to sew a coat made only of the wings of moths. A work of delicate beauty is created and with it, a fragile bond between two lonely souls. But no sooner is the work finished than her employer disappears. In search of him, she discovers his secret: the cloak holds one last hope - escape from a hostile world of lights into the freedom of the moonlit night
