Giving Eve a more important role could certainly help solve gender inequality, but all the video says is that it would be interesting to interpret the bible that way. And though I agree that would be interesting, I did not hear anything about how that could follow from the text in Genesis. It sounds to me more like a proposal for a new (holy) book in which the creation happened in reverse order, than debunking anything or providing a new interpretation of the bible.
It doesn't really matter though. It's shocking how many books and movies fail the Bechdel test. Interpreting or rewriting any one book to give women a bigger role is just a drop in the ocean. We need a change of mindset, not a change of one story.
