Along Unknown Paths (Russian: Там, на неведомых дорожках..., romanized: Tam, na nevedomykh dorozhkakh) is a 1982 children's fantasy film directed by Mikhail Yuzovsky based on the novel Down by the Magic River by Eduard Uspensky.

Baba Yaga's neighbor, the swamp Kikimora, soon arrives, and together they gaze in the magic dish and observe what is going on in the Tsarist kingdom.

In the meantime, the greatest criminals of the tsarist empire, who are friends of Koschei, including Likho, Nightingale the Robber, and the three-headed dragon, arrive at the court.

Vasilisa's Domovoy, house-spirit, meanwhile, makes his way to the beach, where the death of the allegedly immortal Koschei is supposed to be hidden: according to tradition, he is in a duck, which is in a bear, which in turn is in a box on a tree.

Mitya can instigate strife between the guards of Koschei and free Baba Yaga in the castle, but is locked up in jail by the scribe Chumichka together with the Tsar.

Only when Mitya finds the needle with the help of the pair of scissors and extinguishes its glowing head does Koschei lose his strength and can be captured.
