Abstract

Provided is a light absorption anisotropic layer including a dichroic substance, in which a transmittance as viewed from a front direction is high and a transmittance as viewed from an oblique direction can be lowered, a laminate, an optical film, an image display device, and a backlight module. The light absorption anisotropic layer includes a liquid crystalline compound and at least one dichroic substance, in which the dichroic substance is aligned perpendicular to the film surface, and an alignment degree of the light absorption anisotropic layer at a wavelength of 550 nm is 0.95 or more.
