Having rented a room on Pekarskaya Street from Dr. Kartsev (Vladimir Mishukov), Holmes together with him unravels terrible crimes, despite the opposition of the local police. In St. Petersburg, no one has heard of deduction - the methods of the London detective are not taken seriously. Another assistant to the detective is Sophia (Irina Starshenbaum) from St. Petersburg, whose relationship grows for the Englishman into something more than a joint investigation.

"We are glad that the premiere of the series "Sherlock in Russia" took place within the framework of the Moscow International Film Festival, of which START is the official partner this year. It is a great honor for us that "Sherlock in Russia" became the only series shown at the Moscow International Film Festival, and we thank the festival and the KARO network for the opportunity to show our project on the big screen. I think that irony, thanks to which Holmes copes with all difficulties and solves cases, is now especially necessary for all of us," says the producer of the project, Irina Sosnovaya.
