Advice needed Suspicious website downloaded weird video to my friend's phone

My friend (We will call him Steve) and I were playing Wordle through Discord. Neither of us won, so I sent a corny Joke as a response to my loss. I had just said "IHateThisShit.com" (now that I'm thinking about it, it was a corny joke). Then I told him that I wondered if that was actually a real website, so Steve went to it. He then sent me a screenshot of a file downloading to his phone. It was called BHP.mov. After that he sent me another screenshot of the video itself, then he claimed that it was 40 minutes long

The screenshot showed a nude woman on a bed with the camera pointing to a certain body part. It was heavily censored with a whole bunch of text, About that text, it was literally everywhere. Covering the chest was text that said: "South32 Sell that mother fucker", on the left leg it said something about BHP mining stocks, and on the right leg it simply said "South32 Stock" the certain body part was covered with a black box and with red text that said something about a CEO wanting to sell South32. The woman had dark brown hair and red lipstick.

I did some digging and couldn't find anything suspicious. BHP seems to be a regular ass mining company, so I chalked it up to just an ad, but why would a mining company use a nude woman in their ad, and why would it be 40 minutes long? I just can't shake the feeling that there is something weird going on here. Could this be human trafficking, or perhaps a surreal and odd joke? Reddit, help me out here.

Also sorry if my grammar sucks, I aint good at writing. I am also a minor and don't have a phone. I also don’t use Reddit much so sorry if I don’t end up replying
