31/01/14: Friday video: King corn

King corn is a documentary film which follows two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop that drives our modern fast-food world.

With the help of neighbors, friends Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, travel to Iowa, USA in a bid to learn more about where their food comes from.

With the help of neighbors, genetically modified seeds, and powerful herbicides, they plant and grow a bumper crop of America's most-productive, most-ubiquitous grain on one acre of Iowa soil.
