Other mistake: When Dani is looking at the email her sister sent her, there are three replies from Dani shown below it. The first email is listed as being sent 1 hour ago, the second was sent 42 minutes ago and the third was sent 19 minutes ago. Dani then goes on her phone and the time shown on it is 10:17PM. Later in the scene, she starts writing a fourth email to her, and the second and third email are still shown as being sent 42 minutes ago and 19 minutes ago. She then receives a call from an unknown caller and the time shown on her phone is 10:48PM, but the amount of time shown from how long ago the emails were sent hasn't changed. (00:02:55 - 00:07:05)
Other mistake: When Dani is on her phone after trying to contact her parents, the phone is shown on the Recents page listing the most recent calls she has made. The most recent call listed is Home, where she just called and left a message. Then it is followed by Terri, then Mom, then Christian, then Dad. Each of the calls are shown to have been made 1 minute ago. The message she left after calling the house phone lasted about 45 seconds. Then after the call, she looked back at her email for a few moments before going back to her phone. No way could four additional calls have been made all within the span of one minute and still leave a message on the house phone. (00:03:15)
Other mistake: When Pelle is showing Dani the photos on his phone, the first photo he shows is of a group of women sitting on the ground and other people standing in the background. Dani then points to a symbol on the photo and we are then shown a second photo, without any action done to change it. (00:23:25)
Other mistake: In the end credits, the cast is listed as "in order of appearance", but the cast are merely credited in no particular order. (02:47:55)
Answer: It's actually a boy named Ruben. It's alluded to him being disfigured due to being the product of incest. In the context of the movie, Ruben is supposed to be an "oracle" who comes up with sacred scriptures, runes, etc. From what I understand, due to his deformities and cognitive disabilities, he's considered to be less "constrained" by typical mental/emotional limitations, and thus more open-minded spiritually. (Basically, they believe that because he's so simple-minded and childlike, he's open-minded enough to able to communicate with higher powers).
