I dont think that it would coverb under the defination of service, because production company is not providing any kind of service, they produce the film and sell them to distributors
But its a temporary transfer of copyright...
Temporary transfer for exibhiting films in a cinema hall is exempted & if it is for exibhiting on a TV Channels like sony then it is taxable.
