## Bio

Theodoros Angelopoulos started making films in 1967 and spent the 1970s crafting a series of political films about modern Greece. From 1975 on, he dominated the Greek art film industry with a cinematic style characterized by the slightest movement, slightest change in distance, and complex scenes that unfolded in hypnotic long takes. The pauses between action or music were as essential as what filled them. In 1998, Eternity and a Day won the Palme d'Or at Cannes. He died in Athens on 24 January 2012, leaving behind work that played at the world's most esteemed festivals and a reputation for sweep and precision few filmmakers ever approach.
