Ken,

I will shoot a note to the director, Phillip Mora. We distribute two of his 
other films: Double Headed Eagle and Swastika, and will let you know what he 
says.

The film is available for instant viewing on Amazon which means there is
someone out there who has sold rights in the US recently. Your best bet
would be to try to find someone at Amazon willing to tell you who they
bought it from. The last known US distributor was VCI and they are still
around and while it never made it to DVD and has been out of print for a
long time, they might well still have info in their files. Lastly check
the original Variety review for producer/distributor. Your best bet is
getting someone at Amazon to help with the contract info.

I see that my original inquiry was incomplete.  I am looking for the rights to 
the documentary film Brother Can You Spare a Dime?  directed by Philippe Mora
