《春天的17个瞬间》描写了1945年的春天，潜伏在德国帝国保安局第6处20年之久的苏军侦察员施季里茨突然接到总部指示，要他设法查清德国党卫军高级军官与美、英单独媾和的情况，并查清与西方谈判的神秘人物是谁。在联络电台遭破坏、报务员被炸身亡、无法与上级再次联系的情况下，施季里茨冒着被敌人怀疑、监视的危险，经过17天惊心动魄的斗智斗勇，终于得到了德国党卫队参谋长沃尔夫与美、英司令部代表在瑞士伯尔尼秘密谈和的情报，使苏联政府及时揭露了敌人的阴谋。就在他即将凯旋与分别20年的妻子团聚时，上级却希望他继续潜伏…… 《春天的17个瞬间》被人们誉为“非凡的影片，它甚至使那些惯于吹毛求疵地把影片同历史进行对照的人，也不由得倾倒于影片的魅力。”编导出色地把纪实手法与艺术虚构融合在一起。影片的故事情节以施季里茨调查法西斯上层人物与西方秘密谈判媾和为核心，却又以他与德国党卫军的周旋以及党卫军内部的斗争为线索，剥丝抽茧、层层推进，全片不见“历史瞬间”的快速闪过，而是以慢节奏细腻展现主人公的斗争历程，使纪实性、戏剧性、历史性得以完美统一。 施季里茨是全剧着力塑造的英雄人物，他富有斗争经验、充满智慧，有着坚定的信仰和不畏艰险、视死如归的革命英雄主义精神，因而能在敌营中一次次完成总部交给的任务。著名演员吉洪诺夫在该片中的表演沉稳、干练、富有内在的激情，具有强烈的历史感和时代气息。同时，导演还运用闪回、内心独白和细微的动作刻画人物复杂的内心世界，片中施季里茨与分别10年之久的妻子在咖啡馆里秘密会面时，为了不被敌人察觉，他们佯装成陌生人，隔桌遥相对视，在20分钟里一言不发，完全靠眼睛这扇“心灵的窗户”将人物内心强忍的离别痛苦和无限思念之情表达出来。 由于《春天的17个瞬间》在艺术上取得的突出成就，该片编剧、导演、摄影、美术以及主要演员吉洪诺夫、波罗涅沃依集体荣获1974年俄罗斯联邦国家奖金。
