Shoot it and develop it as a negative. Scala makes really nice negs.
Rodinal 1:20 for 8 minutes.

what speed would you suggest peter?

I admit to not knowing anything about Scala. I did find this link for Scala slide processing in Denver, Colorado:
Scala processing
Good luck! Let us know what happens.

My M5s need red dots!
Joe, expose it at 200...
If for some reason you don't feel like it, send it my way. I'll paypal you the cost.
Scala still is developed in CA, by Main Photo Labs at $10 a roll.

Rate it at 200, Joe.back alley said:
This shot was made with Scala processed as a neg.
I'd refined the processing though.
1+25 Rodinal, 68F for 8 minutes with 5 inversions each minute.

OY!!!!!!!!
Nice!
Murphy's Law of photographic emusions: The better they are, the sooner they become extinct. A guy like Bill Gates could dedicated about 10 seconds of the interest income from his holdings to preserving things like Kodachrome II or 25 in 35mm & 120, Agfa B&W films, etc., etc.

I've developed Scala, rated at 200, in TMax developer for 7 minutes makes a nice negative.

If the idea of b&w slides makes you salivate, check out ilford's manual for reversal processing of FP4+ on their website.
To summarize, you first dev in paper developer, bleach in potassium permanganate + sulfuric acid, clear the bleach with potassium metabisulfite, re-expose the film to light, develop to completion in paper developer, and fix it for good measure.
I've seen a harder-core recipe that incorporates potassium dichromate and uses sodium bisulfate in lieu of sulfuric acid (easier to find, it's a pool-store type chem), but chromium(VI) is pretty toxic.
