The invention relates to a headlight for a motor vehicle, this headlight comprising at least one optical module (16) capable of emitting multiple light beams, including a dipped beam (6) and at least one additional light beam (3,4). It is housed inside a headlight casing and combines a light source (17) and an optical system (18,19), it is equipped with a movable shutter between at least two positions, this movable shutter being arranged along an axis (13) rotatably mounted in the optical module (16) and driven in rotation at least by a motor (20). The axis (13) comprises at least a first cut-off member (24) arranged as a double-edge shutter making it possible to obtain an oblique cut-off for the emission of the dipped beam (6), and at least a second cut-off member arranged as a parapet (30) of substantially constant height, angularly offset with respect to the first cut-off member (24) and making it possible to obtain at least one substantially vertical cut-off line (34) for the emission of a main beam.
