Well the most basic question here is what evidence does the faculty member have to believe the film still exists? The majority of films from that era are lost. Did they just read a reference to it in a book or something that would actually show it exists ( screening at a festival, review ?)
My guess would be that IF it exists it is probably in an archive. There is a database for all archive holdings kept by the worldwide archive association ( FIAF) I can point to someone who could look it up but first you should find out what makes the prof think the film exists? Basically only the remotest chance the film exists and is available to be seen but no harm in trying.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
