Q: Can't save a video from iMovie

Hello.

I made a video on iMovie and I want to save it to camera roll.

I tried to save in 540p and 720p but nothing worked, it is in progress and nearly at the end instead of "copying movie to video library" I see a pop-up message that says "An error occured during export". Is there a way to fix it?

 

P.S. I use iPhone SE, the video is 11 minutes long and I have 9GB of free space.

iPhone SE, iOS 9.3.2
