Little Miss Sumo

It doesn’t last long, but Netflix’s short documentary is a powerful, feminine look at female sumo wrestling.

The perfect documentary short leaves you simultaneously wishing for more and appreciating the brevity of what has been placed in front of you. Such is the case with Netflix's Little Miss Sumo.

This documentary presents a rare and compelling perspective on women's roles in sumo, challenging traditional norms in a male-dominated sport. While the storytelling is systematic, it lacks depth in background and expert insights that could strengthen its gender equality theme. Despite missed opportunities for richer exploration, it remains an engaging and thought-provoking watch.
