Dikkenek is a 2006 Franco-Belgian comedy film directed by Olivier Van Hoofstadt. It has attained cult status in France and Belgium because of its Belgian-type humor.[3][4] It follows the life of different characters for a few days under the pretense of Stef & J.C. looking for the love of Stef's life. The title Dikkenek comes from the Flemish words dikke and nek verbatim for 'fat' + 'neck' and figuratively means an arrogant boaster.
