This film is about a university sumo club that struggles to stay afloat, until several students come along to change all that.

"Sumo Do, Sumo Don't" is a touching tale of how the most unlikely people become heroes. The production is down to earth, and is devoid of lavishness which would distract viewers from the plot. There is also humour in the right context, making this more than just a feel good movie. The movie maintains a positive attitude, showing that people can succeed through hard work and determination. These attributes are becoming forgotten in the modern world, so a refreshing reminder is very welcomed.

Chronicling the turmoil and pandemonium that ensues at a derelict university sumo club, and the rise of some unlikely heroes.
