"This film is the result of historical and journalistic research." "Because of controversial gray areas in Carlos' life, the film must be viewed as a fiction tracing two decades in the life of a notorious terrorist."

"Get going." "Can we come back?" "When I whistle." "What's going on, Ali?" "We didn't hear much." "They're wary." "They mentioned Ceausescu." "He offered them a million dollars." " What for?"
