The Decision is a raw and unforgettable documentary of Brian Dunn’s seven-year battle in his twenties and thirties against Stage 6 Lupus Nephritis, aHUS, kidney failure, and a series of life-threatening diagnoses that threatened not only his body, but his calling, his faith, and his new marriage.


As a young therapist and youth pastor, Brian was used to helping others survive their storms. But nothing could prepare him for hemodialysis, plasmapheresis, aggressive treatments, and the slow unraveling of his strength. Every doctor’s report grew darker. Every day required a choice: surrender or hope.


Then he lost consciousness.

When Brian went code blue, it seemed Lupus had won.


But when death knocked, love answered. In his darkest hour, a single decision changed everything.


The Decision is more than a medical film. It's a retelling from the perspectives of his family, his wife, and Brian himself on resilience, faith under fire, sacrificial love, and the life-altering power of one yes.


For anyone facing chronic illness, impossible odds, or their own midnight hour, this documentary is proof: survival is possible. Hope is a choice.


And sometimes, one decision can rewrite the ending.
