Resident Optimist Takes a Bow.

SMALL business; EMPLOYEE selection

Martin Moszkowicz, the executive board chairman of Constantin Film, is stepping down after a successful tenure of leading the German production company. Moszkowicz's passion for the film industry was sparked when he attended the premiere of "E.T." at the Cannes Film Festival in 1982. Under his leadership, Constantin produced successful films such as "Downfall," "The Baader Meinhof Complex," and the "Fack Ju Göhte" trilogy, as well as the "Resident Evil" franchise.

Despite challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic and economic crises, Constantin remains in a stable position. [Extracted from the article]
