The When You Die Project is a documentary film series and website that focuses on death and dying. The mission of the project is to bring the conversation of death and dying back into society, where it has become an uncomfortable topic. The website, whenyoudie.org, provides stories, resources and articles to help people looking for information about death. Some topics covered on the site include different types of burial options, end of life directives, dealing with grief, how to talk to children about death and much more. The motto of the When You Die Project is "if it's about death, then we're talking about it". The belief is that by preparing for death, by recognizing that we all will die, gives us the opportunity to live a better, fuller life.

The project was started by documentary filmmaker Johanna Lunn. The film series is written and directed by Lunn and is produced by James Hoagland of Centre East Media.

The Documentary: The first instalment of the series is called "In The Realm of Death and Dreaming". It speaks with various sources, people who are "boots on the ground" working with patients as caregivers and researchers. This episode is an introduction to the series and covers topics such as what is consciousness and does it continue after death, near-death experiences (NDE's) and the philosophies of an afterlife. In this episode, Lunn speaks with Dean Radin, Penny Sartori, David Maginley, Anthony Bossis, Elly Claire Hart Peter Fenwick, Jill Shock, Sue Brayne and Andrew Holecek
