I Swear (Cert 15)
This funny, heartfelt and emphatically moving film dramatises the true story of Tourette syndrome campaigner John Davidson. It chronicles his quest to live normally in a world that insisted on calling him different. Diagnosed at aged 15, John’s Tourette’s made him the target of bullying and violence. He subsequently became one of the UK’s most passionate advocates for greater awareness of this syndrome for which he received an MBE.
