Freedom of movement is aimed at moving your residence, not going to a movie or a game.
I quote from your link:

Quote:
Human rights are interdependent. Therefore, the right to freedom of movement is not absolute and can be restricted when needed for the public’s health. Article 12(3) of the ICCPR allows restrictions on the right to freedom of movement for reasons of public health and national emergency. However, these restrictions must be lawful, necessary and proportionate. “Restrictions such as mandatory quarantine or isolation of symptomatic people must, at a minimum, be carried out in accordance with the law”.

In addition, according to the Siracusa Principles – principles that determine the conditions under which restrictions on civil liberties are justified – any steps taken to protect the public and limit people’s rights and freedoms must be “legal, proportionate and necessary”. These measures have to be limited in time and need to take into consideration their impact on vulnerable and marginalized groups.
Requiring people to carry a vaccination passport everywhere they go, or be denied entry to any building, is not limited in time, does not take into consideration any impact on vulnerable or marginalied groups, and even if it became lawful, is neither necessary nor proportionate.
