A Matter of Size

Laemmle's Town Center
Encino, CA


Herzl is a shy 340 pound man living with his mother in Ramle. Fired from his job because of his unpresentable image, and dumped by his weight loss group because he keeps adding rather than shedding pounds, he takes a job as a dishwasher in a Japanese restaurant. There, he discovers the one activity where girth is a virtue and fat guys can be rock stars: sumo wrestling! He and three obese friends begin a rigorous training program and follow their path from body shame to body celebration and from loneliness to love. With echoes of The Full Monty, this is a hilarious yet tender film.
