Where does Kinopoisk get the schedule of cinema screenings throughout Russia?

Question

Data request

Hello!
I am making a site in the image of a film search, and I have a question!
Where? How? Kinopoisk and similar sites take the schedule of cinema screenings throughout Russia?
Can eat any general DB with the schedule of sessions, releases and tp?
Help who knows! Thank you!

Answer 1

We did this project 4 years ago.
There are Kinokhod, Rambler.kassa services, and now Yandex has pulled itself up.
They have physical integration with the cinema's ticketing software.
All data on current sessions is from there + a couple of content managers to brush everything up a little and measure it.
Data on releases and content is easily collected from distributors, the schedule is known for at least six months ahead.

Answer 2

I think they have a line of people who want to pay the dough, if only their cinema would appear on the film search and attract new customers. And how to transfer data to film search, film search itself decides with its API.
And it all started with banal managers, calling cinemas with requests to give them this data. Now everything has changed and works the other way around)

Answer 3

1. Pulls from different sites of different cinemas.
2. Yandex.Afisha
3. Pull from their site.
