Also noteworthy, in the category of cinema ruled by
cultural concerns and actual political events, was Carlos (d. Olivier Assayas), which kept a packed auditorium of critics in their
seats for over five hours with a glossy, but intelligent action film version of the 1970s exploits of a terrorist born Illich Ramirez Sanchez, but known internationally as the Jackal, also by the
code name Carlos; and Des Hommes et des dieux (Of Gods and Men, Xavier Beauvois), a film, elegantly minimalist in design, based on a real - life encounter between Algerian fundamentalist Islamic terrorists and a community of ascetic Christian monks.
