The plot covers seventeen moments (thus its title) spread throughout February and March 1945 (not really spring, but well), narrating how Stirlitz struggles to carry out a difficult mission he’s got from Moscow: to ascertain whether some high-rank German officers are trying to secretly negotiate a separate peace deal with the allies in the West that would allow the Germans to concentrate their forces in the Eastern front, and, in case affirmative, to try to foil any such agreement.
And this is how, hadn’t you come across this post, you would miss one of the most and true unforgettable TV series ever: 17 moments of spring ( Semnadtsat mgnoveniy vesny) an excellent twelve-chapter Soviet production from the 70’s directed by Tatyana Lioznova that relates, in a historical background, the vicissitudes of fictional character Colonel Maksim Maksimovich Isayev, a Soviet undercover agent infiltrated as an officer into Hitler’s SS under the name of Max Stirlitz.
