The Dust of Time (Greek: Η Σκόνη του Χρόνου) is a film by Theodoros Angelopoulos shown on 12 February 2009 at the 59th Berlin International Film Festival and well received by critics.
This film is the second of an unfinished trilogy started with The Weeping Meadow in 2004. The last part of the trilogy had the working title "Tomorrow". The trilogy was left uncompleted by Angelopoulos’s unexpected death in January 2012.
In a press conference for the Greek media, the director was asked about the critics for his film and replied that "the directors are not chosen by the critics or by the audience but by the time" and that for him all of his films are chapters of the same films, "Chapters, as he said, of a big book, about human destiny, about the times passed and about the times coming"

Famous quotes containing the words dust and/or time:
“Sometimes Death, puffing at the doore,
Blows all the dust about the floore:
But while he thinks to spoil the room, he sweeps.
Blest be the Architect, whose art
Could build so strong in a weak heart.”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
“What are days for?
Days are where we live.
They come, they wake us
Time and time over.
They are to be happy in:
Where can we live but days?”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
