Overview of classes

The schema:Role class

Some properties on the resources are temporally restricted. To express a specific time frame in which a certain property value relation is valid, the schema:Role class is used. This class can be used in any object position and extends the triple with the same property, while incorporating additional information, such as specific roles some entity played, or a start and end date. The Role class is used consistently in the data, even when there is nothing to reify.

Simple Event Model Timestamps (sem:hasTimeStamp)

If a date is given in a less precise format than a full ISO 8601 description (i.e. YYYY-mm-dd, given as xsd:date), then the Simple Event Model Timestamp properties have been used to supply a proper xsd:date value.

For example, if a programme is known to be shown in schema:startDate "1932-05"^^xsd:gYearMonth, then the resource also includes the properties sem:hasEarliestBeginTimeStamp "1932-05-01"^^xsd:date and sem:hasLatestEndTimeStamp "1932-05-31"^^xsd:date. For consistency and queryablity, the sem properties are always present, even if an exact date is given.

These properties are also included in the schema:Role extensions of some predicates to indicate a temporal restriction or (un)certainty.

Films

Each movie in the Cinema Context database is an instance of the schema:Movie class. Its permalink is used as URI. The following properties can be found as properties of a Movie resource:

Querying on Country

The country of a film’s origin is stored in the schema:countryOfOrigin property, which is modelled as a blank node of type schema:Country. Both a Dutch and English schema:name label are included, as well as (if available) owl:sameAs links to Wikidata or the TGN. To query for films from the Soviet Union:

SPARQL

Theaters

Theaters, or ‘venues’ are organizations that are located on a specific location and have a specific name. Usually they are owned by a company. Each theater is an instance of the schema:MovieTheater class. The following properties can be found as properties of a MovieTheater resource:

Property	Description	Example
rdf:type	A resource of this type is an instance of this class.	schema:MovieTheater
schema:name	The name of the theater	“Actania”
schema:description	Any additional information or comments.	“Tussen 1965-68 gesloten resp. niet ingeschreven bij NBB.”
schema:citation	Refers to a publication (article, book etc.) about the film. Modelled through the schema:Role class.	_:blankNode
schema:containedInPlace	This cinema is operated/housed in a building (externally defined on Wikidata or BAG). See the info box below for more info.	<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1843049>

schema:additionalType	Used in case of a ‘mobile theater’. Refers to WikiData wd:Q6605486 (Traveling cinema)	<http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q6605486>

schema:containedInPlace

The schema:containedInPlace property is used on Theaters to express a relation to a resource from Wikidata or the BAG, due to a somewhat unclear and amgibuous distinction between organizations and buildings. This property states that a cinema is being operated in a building. For Wikidata, most of these resources are defined as subclass of Venue. The Cinema Context ID P8296 property can be the inverse of this.

This data is extracted from Wikidata and a separate file with these links is included in the data. For an up-to-date overview, try this construct query:

Mobile theaters

Mobile theaters are like MovieTheaters, in the sense that you could go there to see a movie. And they are located at a schema:Place, at least at a specific moment in time. Mobile cinemas have an additionalType of wd:Q6605486 (mobile cinema) as well.

Example

    schema:additionalType wd:Q6605486 ;
    a schema:MovieTheater .

Event venues

A schema:EventVenue might be a hotel, a concerthall or even a church.

Example

Turtle (.ttl)

<http://www.cinemacontext.nl/id/eventvenue/001744>
    schema:name "Hollandsche Schouwburg" ;
    schema:location <http://www.cinemacontext.nl/id/place/id1104540487036> ;

Persons

A person might work for a company. Each person is modelled as an instance of schema:Person and can have the following properties:

Person Name Vocabulary (PNV)

Every person has a name. Beside using the generic schema:name property, we also model a pnv:PersonName entity as the value of the pnv:hasName property. This is according to the Person Name Vocabulary (PNV), an rdf vocabulary and data model for persons’ names.

Property	Description	Example
rdf:type	A resource of this type is an instance of this class.	pnv:PersonName
pnv:baseSurname	A person’s surname without a prefix, such as ‘van’ or ‘de’).	“Wersch-Delhaye”

pnv:initials	Instead of a givenName, the person’s initials.	“H.A.”
pnv:literalName	The full name of the person. Includes all pnv components.	“Corry Tendeloo”
pnv:surname	A person’s surname, which is a combination of the pnv:surnamePrefix and pnv:baseSurname values.	“Walpot”

    ] ;
    a schema:Person .

Places

A ‘place’ is just that: a point on the map. Sometimes a place might have a 1:1 relation with a building, but it’s perfectly possible there were several buildings on that spot, over time.

Property	Description	Example
rdf:type	A resource of this type is an instance of this class.	schema:Place
schema:address	A place’s physical address. Points to a blank node of type schema:PostalAddress.	_:postaladdress

    ] ;
    a schema:Place .

Events

We distinguish two event classes: schema:Event (prototypical events for which one can buy tickets) and sem:Event (generic events, things that happen).

Programmes

A ‘programme’ is a schema:Event consisting of one or more instances of type schema:ScreeningEvent (filmic) or schema:TheaterEvent(http://schema.org/TheaterEvent) (non-filmic), that was held in a specific theater on one or more dates. Sometimes a film was screened under another name (a Dutch name, for example). In such cases this name is mentioned as a schema:alternateName. The schema:startDate indicates the day a programme started. Normally, a cinema programme would be screened for a week. Deviations from this norm are usually annotated as schema:description.

Property	Description	Example
rdf:type	A resource of this type is an instance of this class.	schema:Event
schema:citation	A programme can be mentioned in a CreativeWork, Book, or Article. Modelled through the schema:Role class. Points to a schema:CreativeWork or subtypes.	_:citation

Example (mobile theater)

If the location where the schema:Event was held is a mobile theater, the event is likely to have a schema:organizer property that presumably points to the mobile theater company.

Construction history

Construction events include the sem:EventType ‘Nieuwbouw’ and ‘Verbouwing’. Construction events are of the class sem:Event, which helps to distinguish these events from ‘programmes’ - modelled as schema:Event.

Property	Description	Example
rdf:type	A resource of this type is an instance of this class.	sem:Event
schema:description	Additional info of the building and the building construction.	“ontwerp van J.J.P. Oud, uitgevoerd door zijn zoon Hans Oud”
sem:eventType	Type of construction. Refers to a blank node of type sem:EvenType. The name of this type is given in a schema:name property and can be "Nieuwbouw"@nl, "Construction"@en, "Verbouwing"@nl, "Refurbishment"@en.	_:eventtype
sem:hasActor	Any actors (e.g. persons) that are involved in this event. Modelled as sem:Role with the type of role given as sem:roleType. See below for an example of how this has been modelled.	_:actor
sem:hasEarliestBeginTimeStamp	Earliest possible begin date of the construction, given as xsd:date.	“1928-01-01”^^xsd:date
sem:hasEarliestEndTimeStamp	Latest possible begin date of the construction, given as xsd:date.	“2008-01-01”^^xsd:date
sem:hasLatestBeginTimeStamp	Earliest possible end date of the construction, given as xsd:date.	“1913-12-31”^^xsd:date
sem:hasLatestEndTimeStamp	Latest possible end date of the construction, given as xsd:date.	“1957-12-31”^^xsd:date
sem:hasPlace	The location of the event. Points to an instance of type schema:Place. See also: Places	<http://www.cinemacontext.nl/id/place/Perc75>

Example

Turtle (.ttl)

<http://www.cinemacontext.nl/id/constructionevent/Perc188-01>
    sem:hasPlace <http://www.cinemacontext.nl/id/place/Perc188> ;
    sem:eventType _:nieuwbouw ;
    sem:hasEarliestBeginTimeStamp "1914-01-01"^^xsd:date ;
    sem:hasLatestBeginTimeStamp "1914-12-31"^^xsd:date ;
    sem:hasEarliestEndTimeStamp "1914-01-01"^^xsd:date ;
    sem:hasLatestEndTimeStamp "1914-12-31"^^xsd:date ;
    sem:hasActor [
        rdf:value <http://www.cinemacontext.nl/id/P002395> ;
        sem:roleType [
            schema:name "architect" ; 
            a sem:RoleType ;
        ] ;
        a sem:Role ;
    ] ;
    a sem:Event .

_:nieuwbouw a sem:EventType ; 
    schema:name "Nieuwbouw"@nl, "Construction"@en . 

Querying on EventType

The type of construction event is stored in the value of a sem:evenType property, which is modelled as a blank node. To query for all events of type ‘Verbouwing’ or ‘Construction’, query on the schema:name value:

SPARQL

PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#>
PREFIX rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>
PREFIX schema: <http://schema.org/>
PREFIX sem: <http://semanticweb.cs.vu.nl/2009/11/sem/>

SELECT * WHERE {
    GRAPH <https://data.create.humanities.uva.nl/id/cinemacontext/> {
        ?event a sem:Event;
            sem:eventType [ schema:name "Verbouwing" ] .
    }
}

Surprisingly, when a building is demolished, often the sem:EventType with schema:name ‘Verbouwing’ or ‘Refurbishment’ is used.

Example

    sem:eventType _:verbouwing ;
    sem:hasEarliestBeginTimeStamp "1940-05-14"^^xsd:date ;
    sem:hasLatestBeginTimeStamp "1940-05-14"^^xsd:date ;
    sem:hasEarliestEndTimeStamp "1940-05-14"^^xsd:date ;
    sem:hasLatestEndTimeStamp "1940-05-14"^^xsd:date ;
    schema:description "verwoest bij bombardement" ;
    a sem:Event .

_:verbouwing a sem:EventType ;
    schema:name "Verbouwing"@nl, "Refurbishment"@en . 

Ratings

Films might be rated by a schema:Rating. These ratings might have a schema:ratingValue of either ‘recommended’ or ‘not recommended’, a schema:text and a schema:ratingExplanation. In the schema:about nodes, names and descriptions of the film as written in the rating report are mentioned.

Property	Description	Example
rdf:type	A resource of this type is an instance of this class.	schema:Rating, schema:CreativeWork
schema:about	A rating is about a film. Modelled through the schema:Role class. The title of the film that was mentioned in the rating is given in the schema:name property of this blank node.	_:movie
schema:author	A rating is written by an organization.	<http://www.cinemacontext.nl/id/R001681>
schema:dateCreated	The date the rating was written or published.	“1936-09-04”^^xsd:date
sem:hasTimeStamp	The date the rating was written or published, given as xsd:date.	“1953-09-15”^^xsd:date
sem:hasEarliestBeginTimeStamp	The earliest possible date the rating was written or published, given as xsd:date.	“1953-09-01”^^xsd:date
sem:hasLatestEndTimeStamp	The latest possible date the rating was written or published, given as xsd:date.	“1953-09-30”^^xsd:date
schema:identifier	Some film screening ratings contain an identifier.	“A3500”
schema:ratingExplanation	Additional motivation for this rating.	“Gevechten van dieren onderling.”
schema:ratingValue	The rating’s judgement. Either ‘recommended’ or ‘not recommended’.	“recommended”
schema:text	Additional comments or age rating.	“alle leeftijden”
schema:sameAs	The rating can be present in another archive, such as the Nationaal Archief.	<https://www.nationaalarchief.nl/onderzoeken/index/nt00402/0b44c0b6-7cc1-102d-a57f-005056a23d00>

Filmkeuringsrapporten 1928-1960 (National Archives of the Netherlands)

Some ratings entered in Cinema Context are coming from the archive of Filmkeuringsrapporten 1928-1960 which is held by the National Archives of the Netherlands [Nationaal Archief]. The value in the schema:sameAs property of a rating points to the respective rating/report in this collection.
