Secret Society tells the story of Daisy, twenty years old and plump as a dumpling,
and her adoring (and unemployed) husband Ken. Struggling financially, Daisy
finds a job in a canning factory where she notices that her boss Marlene, radiant
and heavy-set, grants special privileges to a group of equally chubby female
factory workers.
Soon Daisy learns that the women are part of a "secret society" of
sumo wrestlers who are gaining strength and self-confidence by learning how
to love -- and use -- their large bodies. When Ken discovers his wife has joined
the group, Daisy must choose between the life she has always known and the possibility
of achieving something extraordinary.
