Iphone can’t play or export large video

Hi,

I recorded a two hour long video, and I believe that my iPhone was almost full, due to the 60gb amount of storage, that my system was taking. So I believe that the iPhone had to compress somehow the file. I know that the video is 18 gb, but I can’t play it, I can’t share it, and even iCloud photos will not sync it.


Do you have any ideas what to do?


Thanks a lot
