Abstract: We present a field theoretical model of point-form dynamics which exhibits resonance scattering. In particular, we construct point-form Poincar'e generators explicitly from field operators and show that in the vector spaces for the in-states and out-states (endowed with certain analyticity and topological properties suggested by the structure of the -matrix) these operators integrate to furnish differentiable representations of the causal Poincar'e semigroup, the semidirect product of the semigroup of spacetime translations into the forward lightcone and the group of Lorentz transformations. We also show that there exists a class of emph{irreducible} representations of the Poincar'e semigroup defined by a complex mass and a half-integer spin. The complex mass characterizing the representation naturally appears in the construction as the square root of the pole position of the propagator. These representations provide a description of resonances in the same vein as Wigner's unitary irreducible representations of the Poincar'e group provide a description of stable particles.
