The movie didn't play for me, thankfully I found a video on youtube (though it was the whole quest so I just skipped to the end for the movie).
New problem; my feet are stuck and I can't actually get close enough to Arator to finish the quest. Reloading didn't help. Pacified so can't hearth. Logging in and out worked though.
