Morphology
The meaning 'a person who makes motion pictures' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'film' (movie) with 'maker' (a person who produces something). The N + maker compound is a regular, productive pattern in English (and parallels exist in many languages), so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Film maker comes from the early days when movies were made on long strips of film. A maker was the person who put pictures on that film to make a movie, so the term means a 'person who makes motion pictures'.
