Fight Harm

Fight Harm is an abandoned slapstick reality comedy film by Harmony Korine. Filmed in New York City in 1999, the premise was to verbally provoke passersby into a fight. The rules were that Korine could not throw the first punch and that the person confronted had to be bigger than Korine. To Korine, Fight Harm was high-comedy reminiscent of Buster Keaton. "I wanted to push humour to extreme limits to demonstrate that there's a tragic component in everything." The film was ultimately abandoned following the injuries and arrests Korine faced while shooting.
