Music video

The music video was filmed in Buenos Aires under the direction of Santiago Pueyrredon. The video was paid for with Julieta's own money because the label did not want to give her money for the film. The "actors" were friends, relatives and acquaintances of Julieta.

The video depicts a bride in a canteen looking for a partner. She wears a torn dress and no makeup. She walks around the canteen seeing potential partners of all ages. In the end Julieta appears sporting a new dress and makeup, and gives the "yes" to a man bigger than her outside the bar and they kiss.

The video was nominated for "Video of the Year" in 2004 in the MTV VMAla's, but was ultimately won by Cafe Tacvba's Eres.
