Asalaamu alikum,
There is a story about the Prophet's grandsons who encountered an old man who was not performing wudu correctly. They realized they had abligation to tell him the right way, but wanted to be careful to do it in such a way that would not belittle the man. So one day when they saw the man getting ready to do wudu, they asked him in a polite way if he would mind watching htem do wudu. They told him they wanted to be sure they were doing it correctly. The man realized these were the Prophets own grandsons, and he said yes he would be happy to watch them, and he did watch carefully as the boys performed wudu. When the boys were finished, he told them Masha Allah, you did it perfectly. Of course, the man had just been taught in a kind and gentle way how to perform wudu.
So what I am saying is that if you are able to help your brother, you should help him in the best of ways.
And I'm happy to hear you did not deliver the films.
I hope this helps a little.
