Trilogy: The Weeping Meadow(2004)

Angelopoulos died late on Tuesday, 24 January 2012, several hours after being involved in an accident while shooting his latest film (The other sea) in Athens. The filmmaker had been with his crew in the area of Drapetsona, near Piraeus when he was hit by a motorcycle driven by an off-duty police officer, on Tuesday evening. The accident occurred when Angelopoulos, 76, attempted to cross a busy road without wearing a special reflective uniform. He was taken to the hospital, where he was treated in an intensive care unit but succumbed to his serious injuries several hours later. Before expiring, Angelopoulos suffered at least one heart attack.
