Rayan Hamda Barhoumi (born 24 September 2001) is a French actor, writer, and independent creator. He is known for portraying Ymir in the short film The Reclamation of Abberossa (2026), a narrative project he also wrote and produced. In The Reclamation of Abberossa, Barhoumi plays a rebel archer leading a resistance against a conquering empire in a desert world. The project marked his first credited on-screen role and introduced his recurring interest in characters shaped by oppression, survival, and moral conflict. Alongside his work as an actor, Barhoumi is active as a musician under the name Lytcheess, through which he releases original music projects and soundtracks connected to his narrative universe. His musical work often functions as an extension of his storytelling, blending atmospheric composition with character-driven themes. Barhoumi has cited the creative direction of Vee Boonyasak as influences on his artistic approach, particularly in his interest in grounded performances, physical vulnerability, and immersive world-building across film and transmedia formats.
