This video focuses on Aristotle's work, the Nicomachean Ethics, and examines his discussion in book 8 about "unequal friendships", that is, relationships in which the members of the relationship are not deriving or motivated by the same good.
Common examples are when one person is getting pleasure out of the relationship, but the other is getting some merely useful good - or when one person is friends with the other on account of the virtuous character of the other, but can only provide a useful good or pleasure to the other person. These are important types of friendship, and Aristotle discusses what is required to provide a kind equalization or proportionality to them.
