The music video starts with Gian Marco walking out of his house into an alley in a small village in Peru. He then starts playing the song on his guitar while singing in front of a small orange background. The scene changes back between him singing in an old restaurant and also in another part of the alley while playing the cajon. As he sings a big crowd eventually gathers around him to hear him singing.
