Which Academy Awards winners are still showing in Estonian cinemas?
Markus's cinema software tracks the journey of film distribution in real time
On March 10, 2024, in Los Angeles, the 96th Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars, were handed out. This grand event not only highlighted the extraordinary talents within the film industry but also set the stage for global cinema distribution, including Estonia.
Cinemas require real-time updates for showtimes, seat availability, and movie details. Markus’s cinema software offers full automation of the back-of-house operations for theatrical film distribution. We have a separate system that manages when a film starts production, the dates it should be released in cinemas, and how long it will be shown.
In collaboration with the Estonian Film Institute (EFI), a valued customer, the Markus Film Manager facilitates comprehensive data integration for films distributed in Estonia.
The biggest winner of the evening was Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" with seven awards. "Poor Things" received four awards, while "The Interest Zone" was decorated with two Oscars. Although "The Zone of Interest" will only reach Estonian cinemas at the end of March, other winning films such as "Oppenheimer" (more than 107,000 viewers since July 2023) and "Poor Things" (nearly 25,000 viewers since January 2024) have already set cinema records in the Estonian market.
