After the death of his estranged father, John, a defensive man in his late 30s, receives a strange inheritance no one in his family wants to discuss. As he moves through funerals, family gatherings, and a grief support group, his fixation on the object becomes a way to avoid confronting his unresolved relationship with his father. Labeled the family screw-up, John’s attempts at connection are repeatedly undercut by his reliance on humor as armor. One Prick is a dark comedy about grief, inheritance, and the awkward ways love is passed down too late to be explained.
