That short film 'Losing Her Was' really stuck with me after I stumbled upon it last year. I’m pretty sure it was floating around on Vimeo for a while, but platforms like Short of the Week or even YouTube sometimes pick up indie projects like that. It’s one of those bittersweet stories that lingers—beautifully shot, too. If you’re into emotional narratives, it’s worth digging through film festival archives online; some smaller festivals host their selections digitally after the live events wrap up.
Alternatively, checking the director’s social media or website might help. Indie creators often share updates about where their work lands. I remember messaging the filmmaker on Instagram once about another short, and they replied with a link! Worth a shot if you’re determined.
Shortfilmwire.com aggregates indie releases, and 'Losing Her Was' was listed there ages ago. It’s hit-or-miss, but their database is gold for hidden films. I’d also peek at Kanopy if you have library access—their catalog surprises me constantly. Otherwise, just typing the title + 'free online' into DuckDuckGo sometimes unearths fan uploads (shhh).
Finding obscure shorts can feel like a treasure hunt! I’d start by searching Letterboxd’s 'Where to Watch' feature—users often tag legit sources. 'Losing Her Was' might’ve been part of a anthology on Amazon Prime’s indie hub or Dust’s sci-fi/fantasy collection (though it’s not genre, crossover happens). Don’t overlook regional platforms like Tencent Video or Rakuten Viki; they occasionally license poignant dramas. If all else fails, the director’s Vimeo password-protected link might still work—try DMing politely!
Oh, I adore indie shorts! 'Losing Her Was' had this raw, quiet vibe that reminded me of 'The Quietus'—another gem. Last I checked, it was on Daisuki’s curated short-film section, but that site’s been unpredictable. Try FilmFreeway’s portfolio pages; filmmakers sometimes upload screeners there. If you’re patient, MUBI rotates niche content monthly, and it could pop up. Pro tip: set Google alerts for the title—that’s how I caught it when it briefly streamed on Omeleto.

They replaced me as a wife. They replaced me as a mother. So I replaced them with a life they could never reach.
They buried her while she was still alive.
Not with dirt—
but with betrayal.
After eight years of marriage,
she was nothing more than a replaceable wife.
A husband who chose another woman.
A daughter who called someone else “mom.”
A family that erased her existence.
And then came the final blow—
six months to live.
So she walked away to die…
But instead, she was reborn.
Years later, she returns with power, wealth, and a name that shakes the world.
Now they finally see her worth.
But she’s no longer the woman they destroyed—
and this time, she’s the one deciding who gets left behind.
She gave him everything—her youth, her loyalty, her heart. And he repaid her with betrayal.
Publicly discarded by her powerful husband, Adrian, and replaced by his mistress, Serena was left broken… carrying his child while losing the love of the son she already had. To the world, she became a forgotten woman.
But years later, Serena returns.
No longer weak, she is now the untouchable force behind a global empire—cold, powerful, and impossible to control. As her ex-husband’s obsession reignites and the woman who stole her life grows desperate, the truth begins to surface… especially to the child who once turned his back on her.
This time, Serena isn’t here for love.
She’s here for power. For truth. For revenge.
And when she’s done, nothing and no one will ever be the same.
On the day she gave birth to twins, Ava expected love… not betrayal.
“Do a DNA test,” his mother said coldly. “Those children cannot belong to my son.”
Humiliated, heartbroken, and abandoned by the man she sacrificed everything for, Ava disappears without a trace.
Five years later, she returns—stronger, richer, and untouchable.
But when Lucas sees her again… with two children who look exactly like him, regret hits too late.
Now he wants his family back.
Too bad Ava is no longer the woman he once broke

"Fuck me please" I let out another moan, the pleasure was beyond what my lips could describe, he stopped and left me hungry for more.
"You like that right?" his eyes traveled up and met mine. Another devilish grin appeared on his face.
Catching my breathe, he inserted two fingers inside me and I jerked immediately, I didn't see that coming. Shit! that was unexpected.
Fuck me already! This is torture, thrust into me like this. My brain went wild, wanting more of him.
"Your pussy is already heated up for me. It's wet... it's anticipating me" he grinned and continued to professionally move in and out of my wet pussy.

I came across 'Losing Her Was' while browsing for emotional reads last winter, and it hit me hard. The raw grief in the protagonist's voice felt so visceral that I immediately wondered if it was autobiographical. After digging around, I found interviews where the author mentioned drawing from personal loss but weaving fiction around that core. It's one of those books that blurs lines—the details are invented, but the heartache rings terrifyingly true.
What's fascinating is how the author transforms private pain into universal themes. The way the story explores memory, regret, and those tiny moments you wish you could relive reminded me of Joan Didion's 'The Year of Magical Thinking,' though with a more novelistic approach. Whether fact or fiction, it's proof that the best stories often stem from real emotional soil.
That song 'Losing Her Was' hits like a freight train every time. It's a raw, emotional ballad about heartbreak and regret, and the ending leaves you with this aching sense of finality. The last verse has the narrator standing alone, realizing she's never coming back—no dramatic twist, no hopeful reconciliation. Just silence. The instrumentation drops to almost nothing, just a faint piano echoing the loneliness. It's brutal but beautiful in its honesty.
I love how it doesn’t try to sugarcoat things. Some songs about loss try to sneak in a silver lining, but this one stares right into the void. The way the vocals crack on the last line... it’s like you can hear him swallowing the lump in his throat. Makes me think of my own past relationships where closure wasn’t neat or pretty—just over.
there isn't a direct book version yet, but the themes remind me of works like 'Normal People' by Sally Rooney—raw, intimate, and layered with unspoken tensions.
That said, if you're craving something similar in prose, I'd recommend 'The Light We Lost' by Jill Santopolo. It captures that same heart-wrenching duality of love and loss, though it’s not an adaptation. Maybe one day we’ll get a novelization, but for now, exploring adjacent titles might scratch that itch.
