import requests
import json

headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer {ACCESS_TOKEN}'
}

url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/{CAL_ID}/events'

json_data=open('dumped_screenings.json')
payload = json.load(json_data)
for data in payload:
    json_data = json.dumps(data)
    # one api request/event per screening
    r = requests.post(url, data=json_data, headers=headers)

This is effectively a working example of this. The json for this script was generated by my scraper.
