The light module for motor vehicle offers a light source associated with a first part of an imaging system so as to produce a reflected beam coincident with the reflection surface of a high definition pixellated spatial light modulator, which makes it possible to avoid unnecessarily lighting the periphery of the spatial light modulator. The light source consists essentially in one or more light emitting diodes and/or has a punctiform or virtually punctiform appearance. The reflected radiation arrives on a second part of the imaging system, this part characteristically consisting in an optical projection system, some of whose elements can form a back focussing system. The module remains compact and is clearly suitable for providing adaptive lighting in a homogeneous, efficient manner and with high resolution.
