That's messed up.

What camera was used to record the footage?

Phones are not the best source of footage for professional software like Resolve.

You might try using a consumer level NLE, which often work better with such footage than Resolve does.

It would probably work fine if you transcoded the video. Even a transcode to H.264 would probably fix it - though going for something better like ProRes would be preferable. I wonder if the Proxy Generator would work for you. Couldn’t hurt to give it a shot.
