Additional details based on a true and extraordinary story, "My Word" is the funny and touching story of John Davidson – an apparently ordinary British boy diagnosed at age 15 with Tourette syndrome, during a time when few knew what it was. Despite the strange stares from his surroundings and the stigma, and with the help of some good people along the way, John realizes that the problem is not necessarily Tourette syndrome itself – but rather the fact that people do not know about it. In his struggle for recognition and acceptance from his environment, John will find new meaning, change the lives of many, and perhaps even his own… "My Word" is a touching and funny comedic drama, a heartwarming story of overcoming obstacles, of the triumph of the spirit, and of one very different person who will make history.
