When Lorenzo and Brenda are in the car driving through the crowd, in the long shot the windows are half-way down, and in the close shots the windows are all the way up.
The scenes at the Freedomland facility appear to be in late fall/winter - trees are bare, subjects are wearing heavy clothing. When Lorenzo interviews Brenda, he states on the tape recorder the date of the interview is May.
The movie is set in 1999, but there is a child wearing a
G-Unit pullover in the initial police lock-down scene. G-Unit did not come into being until 2003.
