About  [Edit]


"King Corn"   - a free documentary film showing




Two best friends from college 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.



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.
