Sony Pictures Classics has acquired the true story drama “I Swear,” securing a release for director Kirk Jones’ (“Waking Ned Devine”) film in the United States, Latin America, most of Eastern Europe, Turkey, Southeast Asia, Portugal and South Korea.
Written and directed by Jones, the 1980s-set film is based on the true story of Tourette’s Syndrome campaigner John Davidson. Diagnosed at the age of 15, Davidson struggled through an at-the-time little-known and little-understood condition.
The film stars Robert Aramayo, Maxine Peake, Shirley Henderson and Peter Mullan, and the production worked closely with the Tourette’s community, casting individuals who live with Tourette’s, and collaborated with a Tourette’s charity.
