Sumo Bruno plot

Bruno is shy, lonely and completely alone. Bruno weighs 200 kilos. He is 30 years old, was a parking attendant in Riesa and has been unemployed for two months now. Since then, he's been hiding in his apartment, stuffing himself with chips and other junk food and pretending no one is ever in the house. But one day Bruno's old buddy called Kalle. Reminiscent of a fifties with everything fake about it, from the pseudo-Gucci's on his feet to the fake Porsche Panorama sunglasses on his nose, but his heart is in the right place. And Kalle has an idea to reinstate him in his honor. Precisely in their provincial nest Riesa, the Sumo World Cup will take place, for the first time outside Japan. The winner will receive at least 50,000 German Marks and who is in a better position to become a Sumo wrestler than Bruno? To hesitate a little at first, Bruno agrees.
