"A Matter of Size exposes the truth that the "battle of the bulge" is, indeed, a universal problem. And it does so with a large dose of humor, wrapped up in a heartwarming "feel good" yarn."
- Shani McManus, Florida Jewish Journal

"Ludicrously funny."
-Variety
"Charming and Poignant."
- The Washington Post (Critics Pick)
"One Big Charmer."
- The Boston Phoenix
"A Matter of Size
is a comedy, a romance, a sports movie and an underdog story all
wrapped up in one. But its slicing depiction of male friendship, Israeli
style, adds a wholly unexpected layer of astringency."
- Washington Jewish Week

 A Matter of Size is an Israeli comedy (yes, comedy!) like nothing you've seen before, a hilarious and heart-warming tale about about a "coming out" of a different kind: four overweight guys who learn to love themselves through the Japanese sport of sumo wrestling!
Herzl (Itzik Cohen) has been struggling with his weight ever since he was young, and his overbearing mother made it no easier on him. His friends Aharon and Gidi struggle with the issue of weight in their personal lives; from fear of losing a spouse to a "thinner" man, to coming out as a gay bear.
When Herzl loses his job as a cook and starts washing dishes in a Japanese restaurant, he discovers the world of Sumo, where large people such as himself are honored and appreciated. Through the restaurant owner Kitano (Togo Igawa), a former Japanese Sumo coach, Herzl and his friends fall in love with a sport involving "two fatsos in diapers and girly hairdos".
