After you have found a “victim”, you take her/him by surprise; an assistant shoots the action by a mobile; then, you leave the victim in a hurry; finally, the video you made spreads largely through mobiles and the Internet.

The anti-slapping differs from happy-slapping because the action is not rough (neither slaps nor punches), but sweet, kind, careful: to offer a flower, to give a caress or a kiss, to clasp someone’s hand and so on.Every action, even if rapid and stunning, demands full respect for the person involved in the anti-slapping practise.

After you have performed such an act of kindness, you could invite the target-person to participate actively in such movement (you can download and press the flyer here and spread them around). The videos you shoot are exposed on this site.

The success of the project will entail the broadest collaboration possible of the participants in the creation of the non-violent videos, and thus by such an initiative encourage the spread of the anti-slapping movement.

'Cause the happy slapping phenomenon is spreading faster and faster, the artist Rosario Caltabiano has founded a mouvement to promote anti-slapping as a response to the practise of filming acts of violence.
This practise aims at making us question filmed violence, those who indulge in it, those who watch it ,without forgetting those who are indignant and those who don’t accept it.
All of you are invited to participate actively in such movement and to shoot anti-slapping videos!
