The camera uses standard 35mm film. 35mm film is available in black-and-white, color negative (print) and color reversal (slide) forms (and others). 35mm film should be available at any camera store, as well as many drugstores and even supermarkets.

Parts are no longer available, and like almost all 35mm compact cameras (and many SLR's), your brother's camera is utterly worthless so repairs are totally uneconomic to repair unless you can fabricate a replacement latch yourselves.

Although this may sound gloomy, it's not. The silver lining is that you can easily find a similar or better model on your local FreeCycle or Freegle groups for zilch. There are millions of perfectly good 35mm film cameras lying unused at the back of peoples cupboards and drawers and the majority of owners know they're near worthless so haven't even invested in the replacement batteries that many need.

Having received no response in over a month, I assume this is no longer a problem.

no, it is film

A camera is for recording images onto film, not reading the film.
