Social worker Emily Jenkins (Renée Zellweger) has a monotonous, tedious job, dealing with different families every day, dealing with their children's education issues, and getting more complaints than thanks . The original 38 cases were already overwhelmed, and her boss assigned case No. 39 to her. Obsessed with responsibility, a tired Emily still drives to the home of the little girl Lily Sullivan (Jodelle Ferland). Emily was treated unkindly, as always, and on top of that, the eerie atmosphere of the family made her anxious. Feeling Lily's loneliness and helplessness, Emily took the initiative to participate in the case. During a brutal night of abuse, she and colleagues successfully rescue the little girl from Lily's parents. Everything seems to come to an end, and everything seems to have just begun...

Case 39 quotes

  • Therapist: [to Emily] Hey! Wait a minute. Who do you think you are, barging in there like that?

    Lillith Sullivan: It's okay, Diane, Emily's been under a lot of stress lately, but she's really nice to me and I hope I can stay with her a long time.

    Therapist: Don't ever do that again.
