SUMO HOT POT - CHANKO DRAMA
International premiere:
Deauville Asian Film Festival 2007
Directed by Toshiki Sato
The university Sumo club faces a crisis of elimination. Only club members
are a female student YUKA who accidentally joins the club and a student,
from Brazil, CABRERA. With five male members, the club is qualified to
participate in the university Sumo Tournament, which could be a good reason
to prevent the club from being eliminated but they don't even have a proper
Sumo ring to organize the tournament. Now the survival of the club rides on
the shoulders of the most unlikely club members: YUKA and CABRERA!
