King Corn

Premieres November 6 at 10pm ET

A 2008 Peabody Award winner, KING CORN follows college best friends Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, who move to the heartland to learn where their food comes from. With the help of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds and some 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. KING CORN is directed by Aaron Woolf.
