Sever (North) is a Czech crime thriller television series broadcast on Czech Television in 2019. The plot is set in the region of northern Bohemia around 2010 and is based on real events;[1] the main character, a young official and later a promising criminalist, struggles with political corruption and the "impunity" of some people in his previous and new jobs. He stumbles and becomes an outlaw because – true to his ideals – he does not want to play the game of his police pack.

The psychologically conceived series abounds with several storylines and surprising twists.[2] It was presented on August 22, 2019, and premiered on September 2 on the public channel ČT1. Together with the ten-episode Pleasure Principle, it was the main crime series of the autumn broadcast of Czech Television.
