Music video edit
The music video for "Eres Para Mí", directed by Sebastián Sánchez, who had previously worked with Babasónicos. It was recorded in Buenos Aires, Argentina in the Republic of the Children, which represents a miniature city for children. The video was released on January 29, 2007, by MTV Latin America.[1]
The video begins with Julieta in a fancy purple dress driving a yellow car while listening to Limón y Sal. When she parks and goes out of the car, she enters a colorful village where she comes across with a series of workers, such as a saleswoman, a nun, a construction worker, a man dressed as an octopus handing out fliers, a policewoman chasing a thief and a snack vendor.
Anita Tijoux is then seen walking and rapping calmly while being followed by the previous crowd, just to be joined by Venegas when the chorus begins again. The whole group then moves to the middle of the street and engages in a calm choreography while the women sing the rest of the song.
