вложена заявка за избор или присъединяване?

Поради множество тагове с oracle , пренебрегнах етикета mysql ( от която трябва да се отървете. Например, моля, решете коя DBMS използвате ли, между другото вече премахнах неуместния oracle-sqldeveloper ).

Изглежда, че имате нужда от такъв оператор за избор ( предпочитате да използвате модерен ANSI-92 JOIN синтаксис, лесен за поддръжка и разбираем ) с подреждане по низходящ sum и принос на row_number функционира като:

SELECT Name, Sum_Takings 
  FROM
  (
   SELECT f.Name, sum(p.Takings) Sum_Takings,
          row_number() over (ORDER BY sum(p.Takings)) as rn
     FROM Film f 
     LEFT JOIN Cinema c ON f.Cinema_ID = c.ID
     LEFT JOIN Performance p ON f.ID = p.id_film
    GROUP BY f.Name
   )
  WHERE rn = 1;

с добавен DDL израз като следния:

SQL>  CREATE TABLE Cinema (
  2     ID     integer PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
  3     Title  varchar2(100) NOT NULL
  4   );

Table created

SQL>  CREATE TABLE Film (
  2     ID   integer PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
  3     Name varchar2(100) NOT NULL,
  4     Cinema_ID integer
  5       CONSTRAINT fk_Cinema_ID REFERENCES Cinema(ID)
  6   );

SQL>   CREATE TABLE Performance (
  2     ID      integer PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,

  5     Takings integer
  6   );
