Use synchronize. There's no support for recursive copy in the copy module.

Here you have to use /home/Carla also this will sync on your local
machine.

delegate_to: localhost

According to the docs the following task should copy from the inventory host to the Ansible controller
(not tested):

- name: Synchronization of src on the inventory host to the dest on the localhost in pull mode
  synchronize:
    mode: pull
    src: some/relative/path
    dest: /some/absolute/path
