The One That Looms

The series revolves around the inhabitants of Mirador de Montepinar, a fictional apartment building on the outskirts of Madrid. The name is a Spanish pun on the verb "avecinarse", which literally means "becoming neighbour to" and is sometimes used in the expression "la que se avecina", meaning "the trouble that is approaching"; it therefore alludes to both being neighbours and the friction that exists between the characters.
