A new festival, the XENO International Film Festival, opening Friday in Brooklyn ... stakes claim to the space between the rival camps. Subtitled "Cinema from the New Europe," XENO is comprised of ten new features and 50-plus shorts with heavy emphasis on the experimental and the avant-garde ...The DIY aesthetic is quite visible in two shorts programs, one highlighting new British shorts and the other new Irish shorts.The Irish program leans more towards the formally inventive, like Moira Tierney and Giles Packham's elegant, double projection super-8, horse show flick, Ride City and Reynold Reynolds and Patrick Joly's austere Seven Ways Till Sunday - Aaron Krach, Introducing XENO, New Euro Underground Hits New York, Indiewire
