Based on the fairy tale of the same name by Hans-Christian Andersen. Two fraudulent apprentices undertook to make a new dress for the king, which had a magical property - only a clever man, who rightfully occupied his post, could see it. The king and his cronies, afraid of being accused of ignorance, did not dare to admit that they could not see anything.
