What it’s about. A young woman returns home to bear an illegitimate child, and witnesses an environmental accident involving a genetically modified crop of corn. Doubted by the community she has returned to, she questions her own sanity as she tries to discover what is happening. Her journey takes her on a trip down the food chain, as she tracks a potentially life threatening byproduct from the cornfield to the supermarket. Ultimately, she has to confront psychological demons that haunt her as she grows into motherhood, and comes to terms with her own biology. Tapping into cultural myths of food, fertility, birth and sacrifice, CORN is a chilling look at what we put in our mouths and our babies' mouths, and the convergence of Science and Mother Nature.

Who’s in it. Corn stars Jena Malone as Emily Rasmussen, Don Harvey as Horace Rasmussen, Peter McRobbie as Peder Gleck and Pamela Gray as Rachel Haddie, among others.

How it landed. With an audience score of 4.0/10, Corn has proved divisive with audiences.
