If a shearer shouts 'Sheepo!' it means there's only one sheep left in his pen. This means he's shearing well and the wool is cutting smoothly, but most importantly, this means he may be seconds ahead of his colleagues. Sheepo is a stylised documentary glimpsing at the daily competitiveness that push professional shearers to shear one more sheep than their workmate.
