In the run up to this year's Cinema Rediscovered (Wed 23 - Sun 27 July 2025), we’re celebrating a favourite from the third edition of the festival – Just Another Girl on the I.R.T. – which we showed all the way back in 2018, as part of a programme of ‘Women on the Periphery’.

This time Leslie Harris’ under-sung cult gem is back in a beautiful new 4K restoration.

Chantel Mitchell (Ariyan A. Johnson) – a black, bright and beautiful Brooklyn girl – knows where she's at and where she's going. She's determined to go to college, become a doctor, and live her best life, and not to become "just another girl on the IRT" (one of NYC's subway lines). But when she meets fly guy Tyrone, a high-school heart throb with the cheek and looks to rival her own, things get a little derailed...

Part cinéma vérité, part hip hop music video, this is a groundbreaking, streetwise look at inner city black life that should have been a teen classic in the vein of Clueless or She's All That.
