Was it all a dream or did I see it?

This movie was on YouTube and another Russian site a few weeks ago, but like the pivotal character in the unfinished Mark Twain character it is based on, mysteriously disappeared. It had good English subtitles. It was a TV movie in two parts. After a sluggish start, this becomes a very moving adaptation of Mark Twain's The Adventures of Young Satan, which was published posthumously as The Mysterious Stranger.
