More harassed than beaten up. A crowd bully the main character and repeatedly knock his hat off but he thinks it is a game.

A father cuts off his adult son for a period of the film. An unseen illegitimate child is mentioned and both her parents are dead by the end of the film so we never find out if anyone is looking after her.
