Why I can't suddenly see movies the Apple TV app?

When I got my Mac on August I was using it happily watching movies that a family member bought on it, but suddenly one day this movies won't stream again. I tried watching the same movies and nothing. I searched for them and they just disappeared from the Apple TV app. I contact support and we did everything to fix it, even reinstalling Mac OS but it didn't work. Now my iPhone starts experiencing almost the same thing. I can stream a movie, by accessing it by the purchase button. But I can no longer search for it on the search bar, because it doesn't appear.

I need help to see what is happening here? What should I do?

… movies that a family member bought …

If you don't see your family's shared content - Apple Support

If the Purchase Sharing part of Family Sharing is no longer active, then those items are no longer shared.

If the family sharing group member has set a purchase to ‘hidden’, then it won’t appear as a shared item.

When a family sharing group member is no longer part of the group, then their purchases won’t be shared anymore.
