Synopsis
Estefani Brolo performs amid a stylized, surreal world shaped by spinning imagery, shifting spaces, and animated elements. The video reflects the song's portrait of a person trapped in destructive habits and emotional confusion while trying to regain control. Brolo's performance is intercut with appearances by several characters, creating the sense of a troubled social environment rather than a straightforward romantic narrative. The visual language turns the song's themes of guilt, sobriety, and self-correction into an offbeat audiovisual collage.
