Rarely has a video production succeeded more in its purpose of representing a more desperate sense of loneliness than that conveyed in the clip Your mom killed you, by the Chilean singer Camila Moreno. Within the frame of a flawless photograph, in a winter landscape that produces an unexpected mixture of terror and awe, We see an artist who has been strangely labeled as being in the pop sphere, and who, possessing a striking beauty, does not make cliché use of her presence, but rather takes unexpected and quite risky paths to develop her own aesthetic.
This is a video that beautifully accompanies the song and manages to create a particular impact: a profoundly beautiful heartbreak. It is the sadness we contemplate helplessly, without expecting anyone to save us, because this unease has moved us deeply and we don't want to turn away from it. It is fate curing the foolish smile, the irresponsible joy.
The ending of this video is magical; the nudity in the final hour is shocking and leaves the viewer reeling. Clearly, Camila Moreno has taken the risk wisely, and her courage has moved us deeply. Without a doubt, a masterpiece.
