Sumo Do, Sumo Don't (シコふんじゃった。, Shiko funjatta?) is a 1992 Japanese film directed by Masayuki Suo. It was chosen as Best Film at the Japan Academy Prize ceremony.


In order to graduate from college in a timely manner, and to gain the job waiting for him due to his family connections, Shuhei must join the school's sumo team to please his professor. Shuhei and the other reluctant sumo wrestlers on the team are inspired by the professor's determination into doing their best for the school.
