Summary

After a failed assassination attempt on French President Charles de Gaulle, the militant OAS hires a cold, meticulous English contract killer code-named the Jackal to finish the job. As he assembles forged papers, a custom rifle, and disguises across Europe, a dogged French detective races to identify and stop him before he can take the shot.
