How can I play movies in icloud on my apple tv

I have movies in my icloud. How can I play them on my apple tv? I have Home Sharing turned on, but on the apple tv it only brings up "songs" which I don't have any. It does not give me the option for anything in my icloud.

Apple TV HD, tvOS 13

Home Sharing is for direct access to (your iTunes library on) networked computers on your own network.

iCloud is for access to your content on Apple’s servers through the internet.


Movies in iCloud Photos can be accessed through the Photos app.

Home Sharing home videos can be accessed through the Computers app, in the More tab, then Home Videos.
