He is one of Russian cinema's most independent directors and is internationally renown with awards from the Berlin and Venice Film Festivals.
Abdrashitov was born in Ukraine in a Tatar family, and moved all over the Soviet Union with his father's military assignments. He was so impressed with the space flight of the first Russian cosmonaut that he left his parents and moved to Moscow to study nuclear physics at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.
Around that time, he developed an interest in amateur filmmaking, and he transferred to the Mendeleev Institute of Technology because it was equipped with a film studio for students. His cultural and artistic interests developed during the "Thaw," which was a time when repression and censorship were reversed in the Soviet Union.

(1974), a satirical comedy based on the screenplay by Grigori Gorin. In 1975 Abdrashitov met with the unknown writer Aleksandr Mindadze. That was the beginning of a collaboration that lasted for the next 12 films, which they made together in 30 years. Their films were awarded at many international film festivals as well as at the Soviet and Russian film forums.
In 1989, he won the Alfred Bauer Prize at the 39th Berlin International Film Festival for the film The Servant. The following year he was a member of the jury at the 40th Berlin International Film Festival. At the 45th Berlin International Film Festival in 1995, his film A Play for a Passenger won the Silver Bear.

En 1970, il passe le concours d'entrée de Institut national de la cinématographie dit VGIK et suit la formation dans la classe de maître de Mikhaïl Romm, puis, après la mort de ce dernier, chez Lev Koulidjanov. Son travail de fin d'études est l'adaptation de la nouvelle de Grigori Gorine Arrêtez Potapov ! qui gagne le prix de la meilleure réalisation du festival cinématographique Molodost et le premier prix du festival du VGIK. En 1974, Youli Raizman l'invite à rejoindre l'équipe de Mosfilm. Il y fait connaissance d'Aleksandre Mindadze avec qui il signera onze films.
