Lighting device for a motor vehicle and production method

A lighting device for a motor vehicle wherein the lighting device is designed to generate a signal function comprising:

• a plurality of light sources, wherein the plurality of light sources can each be activated individually or at least in one or more light source groups, and wherein a portion of the plurality of light sources have a plurality of primary lenses dedicated to each of the respective plurality of light sources for focusing the light emitted by the respective light sources, and has a secondary optics element for projecting the focused light onto a lighting plane, which has a plurality of light entry surfaces dedicated to each respective light source and one light exit surface, wherein a non-transparent grid is located downstream of the light exit surface on the secondary optics element in the exit direction of the light, for segmenting the light exiting the light exit surface, wherein the grid comprises a plurality of grid segments dedicated to a respective light source of the plurality of light sources, wherein each primary lens focuses the light emitted from a light source, in a preferential direction, wherein the preferential direction is a direction between the norm of the plane in which the light source is located, and a direction in or counter to the direction of travel for a motor vehicle and wherein the secondary optics element refracts the light beam entering the light entry surface at the light exit surface in a direction in or counter to the direction of travel for a motor vehicle, or in a lateral direction in relation to the motor vehicle, and wherein the grid comprises a bowed or curved shape.
