The music video

edit

The music video for "Stupida" was filmed in Verona and was inspired by the movie Groundhog Day. In the video Alessandra Amoroso repeats her birthday, 12 August, but no one is aware of her presence. Towards the end of the video the dark bluish tones change to more natural and bright colours as time begins to flow normally again.
