Food + Farm: "King Corn"
King Corn is about two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop that drives our fast-food nation. Ian and Curt move from Boston to the heartland to learn where their food comes from. With the help of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds, and powerful herbicides, they plant and grow a bumper crop of Americas most-productive, most-subsidized grain on one acre of Iowa soil. But when they try to follow their pile of corn into the food system, their discoveries raise troubling questions about how we eatand how we farm. With Michael Pollan. Q&A with filmmaker Ian Cheney.
