I know that the question is not concrete. But someone who has compressed videos for a long time, what settings would you use to compress (for example) a 1080P movie, which weighs 15gb and reduce its weight as much as possible without losing quality?

For professional purposes, you target the minimum compression necessary to fit your media. Meaning if a 15GB file fits your media, you don't compress it more.
Any compression that isn't loss-less reduces the quality. So your "without losing quality" means do not compress.

HQ 1080p preset is a good starting point. See how you feel about encoding time, output size, and output quality to make adjustments from there.
