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:
“not that horror was not, not that the killings did not continue,
not that I thought there was to be no more despair,
but that as if transparent all disclosed
an otherness that was blessèd, that was bliss.
I saw Paradise in the dust of the street.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“Time isn’t so important.... We can say that time is behind us, that we’ve had years together.... I can tell you about a thousand wonderful hours we’ve spent together because I feel we would have, inevitably. And there’s not that much difference between the future and the past.”
—Kurt Neumann (1906–1958)
