* InvisibleToAdults: Francisco and Jacinta's parents believe the children, and their father gives Lucia's mother a vehement talking-to: "They saw the lady. The priest did not. I believe what they tell me."
* [[FantasyForbiddingFather Fantasy-Forbidding Mother]]: Lucia's mother thinks she's lying for attention. Fr. Ferreira believes her, but cautions it could be a trick from Satan, so her mother forbids her to go to the Cova. She relents later when she sees Lucia rushed and almost trampled by an overly-devout crowd.

* SourceMusic: As Lucia and her family leave church at the beginning, the organ is heard; the children in the St. Anthony's Feast scene sing Schubert's version of "Salve Regina", and after the third visitation Lucia sings a traditional version of "Regina Coeli" and is joined by the crowd behind her.

!Tropes for the film:
* PatronSaint: The plot is about Mary's visitations in Portugal to Lucia Santos and her cousins, now St. Francisco and WaifProphet St. Jacinta Marto. Canonized on May 13, 2017, they are the youngest saints other than some of the early Christian martyrs.
* PleaseDontLeaveMe: The movie has this - based on what Lucia Santos said was an actual conversation with [[Sandbox/TheVirginMary the lady from heaven]]" - as Lucia realizes the lady means to take her little cousins "to heaven" long before herself:

* TakingTheVeil: Lucia Santos has become a nun in the very last scene, where the basilica commemorating her and her cousins' 1917 visions of the Blessed Virgin is opened. The real Lucia did go to a convent school at 13, run by the Dorothean sisters, and later joined their convent; by the time the basilica opened she was 46 and in the enclosed Carmelite order, although she was present at the festival.
