- Synopsis:
The most popular cult series of Soviet Union! The plot is driven by Stirlitz's (Vyacheslav Tikhonov)'s attempts at thwarting negotiations between SS General Karl Wolff (Vasiliy Lanovoy), representing Walter Schellenberg and Heinrich Himmler (Nikolai Prokopovich), and American intelligence operative Allen Dulles (Vyacheslav Shalevich) in Bern, Switzerland during the final months of World War II. Dulles, portrayed in the show as acting without the authorization of the President, is interested in reaching a peace agreement with Nazi Germany that would leave many Nazi institutions in place in order to prevent the rise of 'Bolshevism' in Western Europe. The negotiations are conducted in secret and behind the back of Hitler and, more importantly for Stirlitz, the Soviet Union. Stirlitz's position is aggravated by the fact that right from the very beginning of the series, Obergruppenführer Ernst Kaltenbrunner (Mikhail Zharkovsky) instructs Gestapo chief Heinrich Müller (Leonid Bronevoy) to launch an investigation of Stirlitz, having become suspicious of Stirlitz's apparent connection to the failed destruction of Krakow, the delays the German atomic research program and his almost-too-impeccable record of loyalty and devotion to Hitler (Fritz Diez), even as other German officers had begun to grumble in private about the course of the war... - Actors:
