Dear schnores-ga
Your brother is absolutely right and you weren't dreaming. The film is
called BEAR'S KISS.
These are from the reviews of the film (for further information click on the links)
"A girl who travels with a circus falls in love with a bear who
shape-shifts into a handsome man. It sounds like a fairy-tale fantasy,
but it really is a bleak little tale. A co-operation of several
European countries creates a film that falls short of the magic it
would need"

"Lola withdraws from human contact to turn increasingly to Misha, the
year-old bear she has raised from a cub. "You?re my guy," she coos,
"do you know that? My one and only.'
But Misha ? captured on frozen tundra when savage Asian hunters kill
its dam ? is no ordinary bruin. In what initially seem dream
sequences, he metamorphoses into a naked, blue-eyed, dark young man
(Sergei Bodrov, Jr.) whose frequent "shape-shifts" gradually become
reality."
