Continuity mistake: When Lorenzo practices shooting he hits a bottle which his alcoholic buddy is holding in his hand. Only the neck remains in the hand, but when the camera angle changes the piece is much bigger, including the label. (00:59:15)

Continuity mistake: When we see the guitar maker walking through the village playing the guitar which he is going to give El, he is first playing left-handed, then right-handed. From the loose ends of the strap one can tell that the shot is not flipped. (00:07:05)
