Rememory (2017)
Continuity mistake: The rememory recording headpiece has a single button on only one side, which lights up when activated. While Sam is with Todd he listens to Todd's history, and when Sam activates the device he holds the headpiece out for Todd to "prove it." In the first shot Sam's holding the side with the lit-up button, but in the next shot the headpiece is turned the opposite way, with the lit-up button facing Todd as Sam's holding the other side of the headpiece.
