About
When a mysterious incident unsettles his farm, a shepherd's flock of detective-novel-loving sheep set out to investigate the human suspects.
On a farm near the English village of Denbrook, shepherd George Hardy looks after his flock and reads detective novels to his sheep every night. George assumes the animals cannot understand the stories. When a mysterious incident disrupts life on the farm, the sheep decide to become detectives themselves. Led by crime-loving ewe Lily, the ram Mopple who remembers everything, and loner Sebastian, they follow clues and investigate the human suspects.
Hugh Jackman plays George Hardy. The voice cast includes Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Lily, Bryan Cranston as Sebastian, Chris O'Dowd as Mopple and Regina Hall as Cloud.
