John Q. Archibald (played by Denzel Washington) is a factory worker struggling to make ends meet. As he works hard to provide for his family, the couple's relationship diminishes, leading to a marriage on the brink of collapse. The situation worsens when tragedy strikes their 9-year-old son, Michael. One day, Michael suddenly collapses at a baseball field, and when John Q rushes him to the hospital, he learns that his son suffers from severe congenital heart disease and needs a heart transplant to survive. The cost of the surgery far exceeds his medical insurance coverage. After several futile attempts to communicate with the hospital, the administration decides to remove them from the transplant waiting list. This enrages John Q, who, out of desperation, storms into the hospital's emergency room with a gun, taking innocent medical staff and patients hostage, demanding that the hospital perform surgery on his son immediately. This battle of morality and legality is more complex than it seems...
