Official trailer and plot of Sumo

The film showcases a heartwarming tale of a man who finds a lost and toddler-minded sumo wrestler on one of the Indian beaches. Despite being grown up physically, the wrestler has a mind as innocent and simple as a child.

Blending cross-culture storytelling, the film then follows how the two of them bond and try to understand one another, as they realize each other’s shortcomings. 

A series of comedic events bonds them together, while the two of them sailing through misadventures together adds the lighthearted quotient to the somber film.

The climax of the film arrives at a point where the man undertakes a journey to Japan to return the young sumo wrestler to where he belongs. Their foray together captures self-discovery, introspection and deeper realizations by both the man and the wrestler.
