The higher the lid, the dimmer the display - is it the screen or the screen cable?

MacBook Pro 15'' Late 2016 screen starts getting dimmer and dimmer when I open the lid past 30 degrees until it gets completely black.
I captured the process in the attached video.

I wonder if this is the screen or the screen cable problem. Do you have any idea what the issue might be?

Looks like classic flexgate symptoms.

You can clearly see the stage lights.

That looks like symptoms of the Flexgate.
