The TV-series focusing around the inhabitants of Mirador de Montepinar, a fictional building located on the outskirts of a big city.

The episodes debuted on the Telecinco network, and were later rerun by the same network as well as cable/satellite channels FactoríaDeFicción and Paramount Comedy. The series debuted in 22 April 2007 and became popular thanks to its funny characters, witty script, use of catchphrases and capacity to integrate and poke fun at contemporary issues; the program presents a caustic satire of many of the 'types' found in Spanish society. The name of the show involves wordplay, as "vecina" is the Spanish word for neighbour.

In an unknown future, humanity is no longer what it once was. Sex is the new currency, and desire has become the economy. Three lives collide under a regime that controls even intimacy itself. Pedro survives ruin without money or hope, Ana seeks in fertility the success the system denies her, and Marcos conspires from the shadows to bring it all down. Three fragmented stories from a single world breathing oppression, desire, and rebellion. A glimpse into the dawn of a revolution where the price of being human has never been higher.

Checco's life is a comfortable and luxurious one, and it couldn't be otherwise, considering he's the only son of Eugenio Zalone, a wealthy sofa manufacturer. Stranded by the pool in his luxurious villas, with an unspecified number of Filipinos serving him, a very young Mexican model as a girlfriend, and vacationing on his yacht with friends who share his passion for not wanting to work; it seems like a truly enviable life, considering he lacks nothing, absolutely nothing. Actually, no. Something is missing. It's his underage daughter, Cristal, named after the famous French sparkling wine, who has suddenly disappeared without a trace. Urgently summoned to Rome by his ex-wife, Linda, he finds himself facing the responsibilities of fatherhood for the first time, trying to find the girl—a very complicated task, considering he knows absolutely nothing about Cristal and her life.
