Sumo Bruno

Bruno (Hakan Orbeyi) is shy, lonely and solo anyway. Because Bruno weighs 200 kilos. He is 30 years old, a barrier guard in the Saxon town of 'Riesa' and has also been unemployed for two months. Since then, he has been hiding in his apartment, stuffing himself with chips and other junk food and pretending that no one is at home when the bailiff rings his doorbell again. Bruno's buddy Kalle (Oliver Korittke) is a little reminiscent of a fake Fuffziger, because everything about him is fake, from the pseudo-Guccis on his feet to the imitation Porsche panorama sunglasses. He is unemployed for the third time, but he has his heart in the right place. And Kalle has an idea how they can restructure themselves. Because in the Saxon provincial town, of all places, the first sumo world championship outside Japan is taking place. The winner will receive 50,000 DM - and who, please, would be better suited as a sumo wrestler than Bruno?! After initial hesitation, Bruno actually gets involved in the ludicrous undertaking.
