So the question you have written is not a question. The first thing you want to determine what themes you can used for the essay. These will be your bodyparagraphs. To do this though you will first need to identify all the relevant quotes that you can use for the essays. After this you can organised quotes into body paragraphs based on the arguments.

When given the essay question choose the relevant themes/quotes.

Aim for about 8 quotes per an essay.

I'd probably say something in regards to accessibility in our modern society and how this is turn allows texts to have a more dominant influence on audiences (such as to emphasise caution etc.) And since your text is a film it really plays into the concept of accessibility which you could then integrate into all the paragraphs. Hope that helpss or gives u inspo at least.
Safest bet is just to restate the question with synonyms and more evaluative language and then add smth extra at the end.
