Example
Returns 3 movies:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?with_crew=1071®ion=RU
Returns 26 movies:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?with_crew=1071
By API description there should be only one difference:
If you specify the region parameter, the regional release date will be used instead of the primary release date.
How exactly works this parameter? I have checked - those 26 movies mostly have Russian description (with adding language=ru-RU).

I made the API Request.
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?api_key=[THE_KEY]®ion=RU&sort_by=primary_release_date.desc&page=1&with_crew=1071
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?api_key=[THE_KEY]&sort_by=primary_release_date.desc&page=1&with_crew=1071
&sort_by=primary_release_date.desc
I compared the two results.
I went to check only the first two that are not included in the survey region=RU
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/173228-something-necessary/edit?active_nav_item=release_information&language=en-US
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/275772-rosakinder/edit?active_nav_item=release_information&language=en-US
Neither film was released in Russia.
I didn't check the others.
These two films that I checked only have pages in English and German.
They do not have a page in Russian.
You can provide the link for any of them that have a page in Russian, but it does not appear in the search region=RU?
I believe that if it was not released in Russia, or rather, if it does not have a release date in Russia registered here in our database,
then, it will not be included in the response to the Requisition that specifies discovering films by an actor or crew that has been released in Russia.
There is no need for the page in Russian.
There needs to be a release date in Russia.
The existence of a page in Russian does not change the answer.

Yes, this is the crux of it. If you specify
region
, it will filter items that have a release date for that region.Reply by Tirraon
