I Swear

Directed by Kirk Jones
United Kingdom
2025
121 mins

Based on the true story of John Davidson, who was diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome at a young age, I Swear is a moving, uplifting account of his life, from growing up with the condition in 1980s Scotland – where his involuntary tics and vocal outbursts made him a target for ridicule – to becoming one of the most outspoken and compassionate advocates for Tourette’s awareness in the U.K.

Anchored by an outstanding performance from Robert Aramayo, winner of this year’s BAFTA for Best Actor, I Swear is a frank, funny, and touching story about the transformative power of friendship and community, and about what it means to be truly understood.
