Food Matters Film Series - King Corn
Join us for a screening of the now legendary food film King Corn. King Corn is a feature documentary about two friends, one acre of corn and the subsidized crop that fuels our fast-food nation. In King Corn, Ian Cheney and Kurt Ellis, best friends from college on the east coast, move to the heartland to learn where their food comes from. With the help of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds, nitrogen fertilizers, and powerful herbicides, they plant and grow a bumper crop of America's 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, what they find raises troubling questions about how we eat - and how we farm.
