The Ministry of Culture can control the timing of the release of all paintings in cinemas – upon receipt of a rental certificate, the creators of the picture must indicate at what time they plan to premiere. Officials may not agree on the proposed dates. Thus, Medinsky seeks for Russian films to benefit at the box office, in particular, the best dates for the show. At first, these were informal requests, and since 2017, these powers of the Ministry of Culture have been officially enshrined. The most famous cases of transferring Hollywood movies are connected with the May holidays – acting Minister is sure that on Victory Day cinemas should show only Russian cinema.
