How Death Teaches the Best Life Lessons

The last conversation you want to have shouldn’t be the last one you do have.  Filmmaker Johanna Lunn is using her lifelong curiosity about death to bring documentaries about "What happens when we die," to life. She’s the co-founder of the When You Die Project which hosts a resource-rich website, podcast, and documentary trilogy.   

The When You Die Project is here to facilitate a cultural dialogue most often avoided — one that begins at the end. From existential afterlife questions such as “What happens when you die?” to palliative care, and the nuts and bolts of preparing for end of life. If it has to do with death, they’re talking about it.

Award-winning producer, director, and writer Johanna Lunn has contributed to many profoundly thought-provoking programs during her 35 years in filmmaking. In addition to film festival awards, her work has received eight Canadian Screen Award nominations and won three. Her work has been shown around the world.

Join When You Die on Nov. 23, 2024 for a showcase of the 3rd film in the When You Die Trilogy -  Architecture of Death: The Inner World of Dying Screening, followed by a panel discussion and Q&A!

When: Nov. 23 from 4:30 - 7:30 pm PST

Where: Los Angeles Performing Arts Conservatory
