Do you eat?
Do you ever wonder about your food?

You are how you eat, so join EcoLogic Development Fund for this one-time only screening of "King Corn" - a feature documentary about two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop that drives our fast-food nation. Discov...er how the food you eat impacts the world around us with this humorous look at how one plant dominates our food system. This special screening will be followed by a Q&A with one of the filmmakers, Curt Ellis.
