You would need to upgrade to at least Catalina to download the current version of iMovie. Your 2012 Mac Book Pro is too old to get Catalina, so you won't be able to get the current version of iMovie.
If you had an earlier version of iMovie 10 on your Mac at one point in history, even though you may have deleted it, you may be able to get the highest iMovie version that your Mac's operating system will run. Try this procedure: To update/redownload iMovie 10, drag your iMovie 10 app from the Applications folder into the trash, but do not empty the trash. (You can skip that step if you had iMovie 10 on your computer before, but deleted it.) Sign in to the app store and open your purchases folder by
clicking on your name at the bottom of the app store side bar. (NOTE: For El Capitan and older, click on the Purchases tab at the top of the app store screen and then sign in. Click on Purchases again to reveal your purchases.) You will see your purchases
displayed, including iMovie 10. Redownload/update iMovie from there. If not successful, drag your present iMovie app out of the trash (if you moved it there) and return it to the Applications folder.
