Reach files on Nexus 5 with broken screen from computer

Hi!

Cracked my screen on my Nexus 5 today (squeezed it in a door). The touchscreen won't work and you can't see anything except green and red stripes on the screen. Is there any possibility to reach the files from my computer even if i can't unlock the phone with my graphical password? It runs Android 5.1 and I haven't rooted it or anything. Very desperate to reach the data on my phone, have photos, videos and a diary from my year in Australia... Should think about back-up next time!
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to Android Central! Do you know if the phone is actually still functioning? Did you try the method linked above?
