King Corn
From PBS Independent Lens (http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/kingcorn/):
“Two recent college grads discover where America’s food comes from when they plant a single acre of corn and follow it from the seed to the dinner plate. With the help of government subsidies, genetically modified seeds and powerful herbicides, America’s most-subsidized crop becomes the staple of its cheapest — and most troubling — foods.”
“For the first time in American history, our generation was at risk of having a shorter lifespan than our parents. And it was because of what we ate.”
—Curt Ellis, KING CORN filmmaker
