Now Somebody or The Rise and Fall of Philosophy is a twenty-five minute short film made in Germany by director Axel Hildebrand. According to the imdb (and I think you can see where this is heading) it’s about “gorgeous philosophy student Heather Buttkiss who hires hard-boiled private eye "Kaiser" (="Emperor") Lupowitz to find God (because everyone else in her class will just speculate but she wants to *know*). His investigation leads him to Jewish rabbis, atheistic gangsters, even the Pope himself. But when HE is found murdered, "Kaiser" himself falls under suspicion.”
Woody has a writing credit because it’s based on one of his plays, “Mr Big” which appears in the first collection, Getting Even (1971). I’ve not been able to track down the Hildebrand version, but YouTube offers this rendition of the hiring scene from the North Carolina School of Arts School of Filmmaking featuring what looks like (but obviously isn’t) a twelve year old Simon Pegg:
And if that isn’t enough, here it is again in East European, origin less certain:
