Carlos is a gripping drama that chronicles the life of one of the world's most notorious terrorists, Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, also known as Carlos the Jackal. From his early days as a radical left-wing activist to his later years as a ruthless mercenary, Carlos orchestrated a wave of terror attacks across Europe and the Middle East, earning him a reputation as a cold-blooded killer and a master of disguise.
