A powerful new British drama has quietly arrived on Netflix — and critics say it’s absolutely “unmissable.” Fresh off a shocking victory at the BAFTA Awards, the emotionally moving film has already earned a perfect rating on Rotten Tomatoes, leaving viewers stunned by its heartfelt story. I Swear — based on the true story of John Davidson, a Tourette’s syndrome campaigner who grew up with the condition in 1980s Scotland — is already becoming a standout for the streaming service. 
The film stars Robert Aramayo as John Davidson, whose life and battles with Tourette’s serve as the basis for the powerful story. Written and directed by Kirk Jones, the film also features Maxine Peake, Shirley Henderson, and Peter Mullan in key roles.
After its release in UK cinemas in October, I Swear has made its way to Netflix, where it’s capturing the attention of viewers around the world. The film has already received rave reviews and earned a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes from 38 reviews, with Deadline calling it “an unmissable delight.” 
“Davidson’s essential likability shines through, thanks in part to Aramayo’s endearing, guileless performance and in part to writer-director Kirk Jones’ machine-tooled script,” wrote The Hollywood Reporter.
Empire Magazine said of the film: “Just lovely. Tourette syndrome has not been afforded its cinematic dues, but what an affable, funny character to explore it with in John Davidson — and what a performance from Robert Aramayo.” 
“Empathetic, funny and myth-busting, it gives you permission to laugh at the situation while feeling only compassion for the man,” said Time Out.
How to Watch ‘I Swear’
Here’s how you can see the BAFTA-winning film about John Davidson starring Robert Aramayo — Netflix release date is today!
The Times said: “All flaws are overcome by Aramayo’s technically precise and heart-rending turn. It’s astonishing.”
Aramayo took home the award for Leading Actor at this year’s EE BAFTA Film Awards, beating out Hollywood heavyweights such as Timothée Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ethan Hawke, Michael B. Jordan, and Jesse Plemons.
After the event, BAFTA issued an apology when Tourette’s campaigner Davidson’s involuntary shouting was heard during the ceremony, including a racial slur while Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were presenting an award.
I Swear is now streaming on Netflix.
This heartwarming and thought-provoking film is a must-watch, combining humor, emotion, and awareness of the challenges faced by those living with Tourette’s syndrome. With a perfect rating from critics and audiences, this documentary-style drama offers a unique and emotional perspective on the real-life challenges faced by individuals with this condition.
The film’s box-office success and critical acclaim underscore its importance as both an entertainment piece and a significant social commentary. Through Aramayo’s stunning performance, the film sheds light on the social misunderstandings and struggles faced by those with Tourette’s syndrome.
As we continue to fight for greater inclusion and awareness, I Swear not only presents a story of personal triumph but also celebrates the power of self-advocacy and the importance of breaking down societal barriers. 
This BAFTA-winning gem is just the beginning of a larger conversation, one that aims to amplify voices often left unheard. Whether you’re a fan of heartfelt drama, powerful storytelling, or educational content, I Swear promises to be one of the most memorable series you watch this year.
