This acclaimed movie tells the story of John Davidson. Diagnosed with Tourette’s at 15, labelled “insane” by his peers, he struggled with a condition few had witnessed.
Campaigning for better understanding and acceptance of the condition of Tourette’s as an adult, he finds his life’s purpose. This film tells his story from the early struggles to the recognition of his work with the presentation of an MBE by Queen Elizabeth II in 2019.

Winchcombe Film Society normally meets on the last Friday evening of the month at Abbey Fields Community Centre.
Membership costs £30 per person for a full year of 12 films, or pro rata (ie £2.50 per month from your first film), with no further admission charge. You can join on the night, but it’s easy to pay with a card reader on the day or pay by BACS to Winchcombe Film Society, sort code 40-63-01, account 51056231, giving your name as reference.
Wine is available at just £2 a glass and free tea and coffee is served from 7:00pm to 7:20pm, with screenings at 7:30pm, usually after a short introduction to the film.
Members can also borrow any of nearly 200 DVDs of top-rated films without charge.
We welcome new members and visitors who may attend their first meeting free, but are asked to contribute toward the cost of refreshments. Admission thereafter is by membership only; we cannot accept individual admission payments due to licensing restrictions.
