violence
There is brief comic violence, including a scene in which a man is hit on the head with a dish, resulting in a comic sound. Some food on his forehead is briefly mistaken for blood but is immediately revealed to be gravy.
additional issues
During a comic courtroom scene, in which a man and woman apply for a divorce, accusations of abusive behaviour are made. A judge makes reference to a supposed Albanian law allowing a man to 'spank' his wife under certain circumstances but what he says is clearly ludicrous.
