"It was a shocking filming from the first to the last shot," Páez said in a statement about the video that he stars in, filmed in Argentina. The soldier returns from Malvinas to the arms of Rosita Pazos, who tries to change her world without knowing that the war is murdering, even after it is over.
"I love you very much, Rosita Pazos, I swear it's not with you, I'm a soldier," the soldier sings in his tragic farewell. Regarding his directing work, Richi said he felt "very happy" with the final result that puts images to Páez's melody.
