Severance

Severance is a psychological thriller series on Apple TV+ about employees at Lumon Industries who have undergone a “severance” procedure, surgically dividing their memories between their work and personal lives. This creates two distinct versions of themselves: one for work (the “innie”) and one for their personal life (the “outie”).

The show follows Mark Scout, a Lumon employee, as he and his colleagues begin to question the nature of their work and the company’s true intentions. The series explores themes of identity, corporate control, and the blurred lines between work and personal life.
