I'm not talking about the one on the top. Check to see if the tiny one is tight. If it is tight, then, you may need to take it out, Then put something like a tongue depressor or large flat screwdriver in the slot that engages the cassette from the bottom of the camera. Use a small screwdriver in that screw on the top of the rewind to hold it while you unscrew the crank. Underneath, you can inspect to see if there is damage, or the washers are stuck together. Some gel silicone lube might be nice here, sparingly. Then repeat the process in reverse and you may have joy. Be gentle.
