Ralph Scotoni (1901-1955) was a Swiss businessman notable for his involvement in the German film industry. He was the son of Eugen Scotoni. Between 1930 and 1935, when it was nationalised by the German government, he oversaw his family's interest in Terra Film - the second most important German production company behind UFA. Scotoni became a member of the Nazi Party and many of his later films depicted similarities between Switzerland and Nazi Germany.
