Type(s): Film
This 9th annual series explores environmental issues through contemporary films. The diverse views are thought provoking, timely and sometimes humerous.
In the 2007 film King Corn, two college friends move to Iowa to farm an acre of corn – and then follow their corn to see what becomes of it. They examine the impact of the increasing production of corn in America, and learn that the industrialization of corn has all but eliminated the family farm. The film is a humorous and touching commentary on modern food systems and the ubiquitous nature of corn syrup. Popcorn will be served.
