You mentioned trying Facets, but did you try the Internet Movie Database (www.imdb.com) and/or Amazon.com? Unfortunately I came up with little information about purchasing them, but I did find out some extra info that might help you locate a copy of this film. Frederic Back is the producer, and the short is a production of the National Film Board of Canada. Search around their web-site and maybe you can find someone to e-mail for more info. (http://www.nfb.ca/E/index.html) I don't think the movie has been released on video, but it never hurts to ask the producers/film makers. Good luck!
