A wooded setting, two characters, and conflicting values are the basis for Manami Ikemoto's clever short film “Hunting Results.” Ikemoto primarily works as an editor and creates films that detail the behind-the-scenes process in filmmaking. Here, he shines as a director in his first major project since his graduation movie, “Bad Trip.” With a low budget and two actors, he explores ideas of evolving perspectives and people who stand by old-fashioned notions.
