Some of the dialogue does not match the mouth movements for most of the film.

The position of Sokkar's hands changes from one shot to the next when he calls to his aunt in Ghandour's presence.

The cart scene with Sokkar and Melabesa is clearly composited, as the backgrounds and carts are not proportionate in size to the characters.

During Naffousa Al-Iraqia's conversation with Ghandour about marriage, her hands are below her chest, but in the next wider shot they are on her legs.

When Ghandour goes to Naffousa Al-Iraqia and says, 'The forgiving person is generous,' we see his hand moving at his side, but in the next shot it is on his leg.

Some sounds do not match the mouth movements, such as Melabesa's song 'What a wonderful atmosphere', among others.

After Youssef is beaten, we see him sitting and groaning, but the groans are heard without him opening his mouth.

The slaps to the cheek in more than one shot are clearly far from the cheek.

When Nahed and Youssef go to the Nile boat and she wears different clothes, the makeup powder she uses and her lipstick change in more than one shot.

When Youssef tells Gaafar about the war, he says 'and then' with space between him and the wall behind him, but in the very next shot he is leaning against another wall behind him.

When Gaafar talks with Youssef in his home, we see Gaafar leaning against the wall in one shot, but two shots later he is in another position with a water jar behind him.

During Gaafar's conversation with The Taxi Driver, the lighting on The Driver's face is strong in one shot, then weak in the very next shot.
