Synopsis

John Davidson (Scott Ellis Watson, Robert Aramayo) first started exhibiting symptoms of Tourette’s syndrome as a teenager in 1989. With little understanding of the condition at this time, John uses his initial alienation as motivation to campaign for greater education around, and acceptance of, the syndrome.
