Original Title: The Sheep Detectives

Shepherd George Hardy (Hugh Jackman) is a huge fan of mystery stories. He loves nothing more than reading murder mystery stories aloud to his sheep. In his wildest dreams, he has no idea that the animals not only understand him, but also engage in intense discussions and puzzling over the stories after the reading session. When George is found dead in the meadow with a shovel in his back, it’s crystal clear to his sheep that a murder has taken place. Since the local village police officer, Tim Derry (Nicholas Braun), has never solved a real crime, the woolly four-legged friends must draw on all their mystery-solving experience to find George’s killer. Led by the clever she-sheep Miss Maple, the brave Othello, the timid and gluttonous Mopple, the curious Maude, and the old ringleader Sir Ritchfield must realize that the human world is, in reality, much more complicated than it is in books. What’s more, the village’s many residents harbor some dark secrets. (Source: filmstarts.de)
