Here is a summary of the film from “Balcony Releasing”:

King Corn is a feature documentary about two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop that drives our fast-food nation. In King Corn,
Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, best friends from college on the east coast,
move to the heartland to learn where their food comes from. With the
help of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds, andpowerful
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.
