## Plot

Several families move into an apartment building with their illusions, fears and secrets. But no one can imagine the danger they are facing from Onofre Villahermosa, a charming, handsome, friendly neighbour who is actually a criminal, a murderer and psychopath who has installed hidden cameras all over the building to monitor the lives of the occupants and manipulate them like puppets while trying to ensure no one discovers who he really is.
Several years before, Ana de los Ángeles had a chance encounter with Guillermo who helped to heal her pet dog after it had an accident in the countryside, and it was love at first sight for the two of them. However, they meet years later in the worst of circumstances: she is engaged to his cousin Cristóbal, while he is married and has a young daughter.
All of the characters will fall in love at different ages, falling in love for the first time, after a divorce, after already having grown up children or even grandchildren. But what all these couples have in common is that love will be very difficult, even impossible.
