    Gripping and somber

    This is quite a good film about the harsh realities of giving your life to one single thing, and the sobering reality that this one thing may not be enjoyable or ideal. Takuya's struggle, joy, disappointment and desire to succeed is heartfelt. Definitely worth an hour and a half of your life!

    Takes you to Japan

    Last year, I attended Nagoya Sumo Competition. It was an incredible moment. I've never thought I would like watching big babies fighting on the stage. For one week, Nagoya was full of those half-gods. I loved it. I got crazy for non-Japanese sumoroti. Immediately, I wanted to know more about the very secret sumo sphere. "Tu seras sumo" gave it to me.

    "Tu seras sumo" is more of a documentary than a movie. It takes you to the guts though. I've lived this experience with the young Takuya, at this so Japanese pace, with the savor of Tokyo and Nagoya on my tongue. A classical to watch, for the ones who wants to taste Japan authenticity.
