Plot

A young mother-to-be attempts to come to terms with her own biology while exploring a potentially deadly environmental accident in this cautionary tale of terror from filmmaker Dave Silver. When a young woman returns to her hometown to give birth to an illegitimate child, she witnesses a shocking environmental accident involving a crop of genetically modified corn. When the community dismisses the young girl's concerns about the corn, she takes a journey deeper and deeper into the food chain to track a byproduct that could spell death for countless unassuming consumers. As she tracks the elusive crop from the cornfield to the supermarket, the young girl's greatest fears are confirmed. Will she be able to stop tragedy from occurring while simultaneously making sense of the developments taking place within her own rapidly changing body?
