Attend a free trailer screening & panel discussion of the Greenlawn Cemetery documentary with Indy Dept. of Public Works & Studio Auteur

The Indianapolis Department of Public Works (Indy DPW), in collaboration with local filmmakers Studio Auteur, an Indianapolis based content creation company, is releasing the official trailer for an upcoming documentary chronicling the historic Greenlawn Cemetery excavation conducted as part of the Henry Street Bridge Project.

Indy DPW is hosting two public programs which will feature a screening of the documentary trailer followed by a panel discussion with the filmmaker, archaeologists who directed the excavation, and representatives from the Community Advisory Group. These programs invite the community to engage directly with the film, ask questions, and reflect on how this work contributes to a more complete understanding of Indianapolis’ past.

The full documentary release date has not yet been finalized, as analysis of the recovered remains and artifacts is ongoing. Indy DPW anticipates completion after research and analysis phases are concluded to ensure the film presents a responsible and complete account of the excavation’s findings.
