Krokodillen in Amsterdam (1990)
A surprising friendship develops between Elsa, a wealthy, lazy and entitled blond who goes by the name "Gino," and Nina, an aspiring anarchist who conspires with three others to bomb an arms factory. Though Nina is usually bitter and tempestuous, she is fun and spontaneous with Gino. However, their friendship faces challenges as Gino continually disrupts Nina's plans. They decide to steal from Gino's rich uncle to fund their cause and purchase luxuries. They break into a stranger's home, steal a painting from one of Gino's boyfriends, and the bombing attempt fails due to Gino's mistakes, causing Nina to lose trust with her anarchist group. Finally, the friendship is put to the ultimate test with the "crocodile test."
