Le Conte du ventre plein[1] (international English title: Bellyful[2] or A Belly Full[3]) is a 2000 film written and directed by Melvin Van Peebles.

With orders piling up at their bistro, The Full Belly, Loretta and Henri, self-described "pillars of the community," hire Diamantine as a waitress in order to give a poor black orphan a chance at a better life.

At home, they tell their trusting, new live-in employee that she's "one of the family," yet in town they encourage widespread disapproval of her.

When they convince her to carry an extended joke to full term - pretending she's pregnant - Diamantine, and a slightly shady friend of the couple, Jan, become entangled in an elaborate charade.
