I Swear (15)

I blink. I twitch. I jump. I click. I whistle. I shout. I Swear.

I Swear follows the true story of Tourette Syndrome campaigner John Davidson’s journey with Tourette’s through his troubled teens and early adulthood, having been diagnosed at 15 years old in 1980s Britain – a time when the condition was little known and entirely misunderstood. Initially alienated from his peers and his family, Davidson perseveres in his attempt to live a ‘normal’ life against the odds, finding some unlikely champions along the way.

Written and directed by BAFTA-nominated filmmaker Kirk Jones (Waking Ned, Nanny McPhee), I Swear stars Robert Aramayo (The Rings of Power, The King’s Man, Behind Her Eyes) as John Davidson. Supporting cast includes three-time BAFTA nominee Maxine Peake (Words of War, The Theory of Everything, Say Nothing), BAFTA-winner Shirley Henderson (Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, Trainspotting), and Cannes Best Actor Award winner & Golden Lion winner Peter Mullan (War Horse, The Magdalene Sisters).
