Did you know? The skateboard used by Zach in the film was actually owned by the actor in real life, and he broke his wrist performing the trick that the character lands in the "victory" scene, forcing a two-week hiatus in production.
Why Watch: In *Assets & Liabilities*, Zach’s desperate attempt to reclaim his youthful freedom unravels into a gripping, darkly comedic takedown of suburban masculinity and privilege. This sharp, character-driven indie film masterfully balances relatable midlife angst with a chilling, unexpected twist that keeps you hooked until the final frame. For fans of thought-provoking dramas that peel back the veneer of comfortable lives, this is a must-watch that lingers long after the credits roll.
Zach, a dad living in the suburbs, can’t shake the creeping dread of middle age while balancing work, family life, and trying to sell an investment property. With his wife and daughter out of town for a quick getaway, he jumps at the chance to relive a day as his younger, carefree self. A chance run-in with another skater feels like a win at first—until a disturbing link between them surfaces. What follows is a brutal wake-up call to his own comfortable, bourgeois existence, tearing apart the fantasy of his reckless day and dragging it into a dark, unsettling spiral.
