I Swear (15)

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

Inspired by the life of John Davidson, charting his journey from a misunderstood teenager in 1980’s Britain to a present day advocate for the understanding and acceptance of Tourette Syndrome. Diagnosed aged fifteen, John navigates his way against the odds through troubled teenage years and into adulthood, finding inspiration in the kindness of others to discover his true purpose in life. I SWEAR is a funny, heartfelt and moving account of John’s experiences.

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).
