Asma Laajimi (b. 1999, Tunisia) is a filmmaker and visual artist based in Brussels.
Working across film, photography, text, and installation, she crafts poetic narratives where the intimate and political intersect. Following studies in graphic design and photography, she graduated from LUCA School of Arts in Brussels with an MA in Audiovisual Arts in 2023. Translating personal anecdotes rooted in her lived experience into speculative fictions that amplify and examine the quotidian affects of often overlooked political realities, her work engages with postcolonial themes, feminist perspectives, and urban imaginaries. Her films and artworks have been presented internationally, including at Locarno Film Festival (CH), Cinemed Montpellier (FR), JCC Carthage Film Festival (TN), Kaaitheater (BE), and Argos centre for audiovisual arts (BE)
In addition to her artistic practice, Asma also works as a commissioned photographer and filmmaker.
