The plot of the video is an homage to the dancing world, as it occurs in the midst of a dancing audition. The video was shot in Bogotá and directed by Daniel Jiménez.[3]

The lyrics depict the anxiety felt by performance artists during an audition, as they are facing a potential rejection from a role.[4]
