Vertical purple bars when opening screen

This morning i openend my laptop like any normal day and it showed the following purple bars:

And as shown in the video if i open or close the screen at te right angle the screen turns normal and can stay this way for a long time but when i move it it will start showing purple bars again. I was wondering where this problem is coming from. It feels to me like a lose cable, but i was wondering what you think.
