Set in modern-day London, the film opens with a chilling series of copycat crimes mimicking Sherlock’s most infamous solved cases. But when evidence surfaces that suggests an intimate knowledge of his methods, Holmes is forced to work with Amelia—a tech-savvy, fiercely independent woman whose intellect is matched only by her resentment for the father who abandoned her mother years ago.

Their reluctant partnership forms the emotional spine of the film: an older mind rooted in logic and habit, paired with a younger one shaped by intuition, technology, and defiance. As the mystery deepens, it becomes clear the killer isn’t just imitating Sherlock—they're targeting him. And Amelia might be the only person who can outthink them.

Equal parts psychological thriller and family drama, Sherlock & Daughter explores the cost of legacy, the complexity of reconciliation, and whether the world's greatest detective can solve the mystery of his own heart.
