Synopsis
Mitzi's "Who Will Love You Now" unfolds as a hazy, abstract trip through shifting colors, cosmic textures, layered motion and dreamlike visual effects. Rather than presenting a conventional storyline, the video translates the song's uncertainty and quiet melancholy into a fluid audiovisual collage. Familiar images are warped and surrounded by glowing, otherworldly patterns, giving the performance an almost weightless quality. The result is a wistful but gently uplifting portrait of emotional dislocation, matching the song's question about whether love can be found again after a relationship ends.
Factoids & Trivia

- Frontman Dominiqe Bird explained that the song loosely considers an older person ending a relationship and wondering whether love will return. He also emphasized that the track is not entirely gloomy, with optimism emerging toward the end.
- The video was styled by Hayley Morgan and photographed by Andrew Morgan.
- Mitzi were a Brisbane quartet whose sound combined disco, electronic pop and guitar-based songwriting. The single helped introduce that more restrained, synth-led side of the group to a wider online audience.
