Naro Minded: Party Girl with Karacell

March 16 2023

8:30 p.m.
Naro Cinema 1507 Colley Ave., Norfolk, VA 23517 Price: Free

Old Dominion University Libraries returns once again to the beautiful, historic Naro Cinema for a free screening of Fun City Edition’s new 4K restoration of certified ‘Naro Minded’ classic Party Girl (1995) with introduction by Naro Video alum Erik Swallow.

Plus: a live preshow performance by Norfolk ambient electronic artist KARACELL.

As the team at ODU Libraries continues its work toward building a new, permanent home for the legendary 43,000+ title Naro Expanded Video, we’re drawn to the plight of Mary the Party Girl (Parker Posey). When the fashionable, falafel-fed scenester ends up in the clink for throwing one too many illegal parties, she agrees to work off her bail debt behind the desk of the New York Public Library. A library—we can all agree—is not exactly a party, but as Mary settles into life amongst the books, she comes to realize that she can use her newfound library powers to help her friends succeed.
