Why vectorize it? Just make sure the .jpg is black and print the film.

Sometimes you can resample to 200-300dpi, change to black and white and play with trace, sometime editing a few nodes after a trace.

This one is not just about vector vs. raster. It's tiny and nasty low rez. Needs to be cleaned up.

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!
